BAILEY Arrested For Child Pornography #PervertAlert

(KINGSTON, ON) –Police have arrested and charged a resident following a child sexual exploitation investigation.

On May 8, 2024, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) Child Sexual Exploitation Unit (CSEU), Digital Forensics Unit and Kingston Police members executed a search warrant in the City of Kingston and seized a quantity of electronic devices.

As a result of this investigation, James Mark BAILEY, 41 years of age, was arrested and charged with the following Criminal Code offences:

  • Two counts of Possession of Child Pornography, section 163.1(4)
  • Make Available Child Pornography, section 163.1(3)

The accused was released from custody following a bail hearing and is scheduled to appear on June 25, 2024, at the Ontario Court of Justice in Kingston.

Children are our most valuable and precious members of society. Many victims of child sexual abuse are so young that they cannot tell their story. Every time an image or video depicting that abuse is shared, that child is re-victimized.

 The OPP will continue to aggressively identify and pursue individuals who use technology to exploit children. Parents are reminded to take a proactive approach to help protect their children from online sexual exploitation by speaking with their children regarding Internet safety. Parents can find resources to assist them at cybertip.ca or protectchildren.ca.
