“There are no nude images of his children that we have identified at this point, however forensic examination of the devices is still ongoing, and it’s a long and labour intensive process,” said Detective Brian Cross with the ICE unit, in a video posted on ALERT’s website.

The children are currently being provided support by the Zebra Centre for Child Protection.
