ONTARIO-WIDE BLITZ FOR ONLINE CHILD PREDATORS

  More than 100 people were arrested in a month-long, province-wide investigation into predators targeting children online.
  Ontario Provincial police say Project Maverick — conducted in October by investigators and analysts from the Provincial Strategy to Protect Children from Sexual Abuse and Exploitation on the Internet – saw 27 policing partners conduct 255 investigations, complete 168 search warrants, and seize 1,032 devices.
  “In total, 428 charges were laid against 107 people,” the OPP said in a statement Wednesday. “During the investigations, 61 victims were identified and referred to appropriate community-based resources for assistance, while an additional 60 children were safeguarded.”

A job well done by all those involved in catching the predators.   Thank you.
