Child pornography charges laid against Canada Creep suspect
The Calgary man accused in the Canada Creep voyeurism investigation faces more charges.
Jeffrey Williamson, 42, has been charged with possession and accessing child pornography, in addition to the counts of voyeurism and publishing voyeuristic images garnered after his arrest last Tuesday.
He was released on bail Thursday.
Police say the charges come as city cybercrime investigators continue to sift through terabytes of data seized from his McKenzie Towne home.
That search warrant yielded computers and hard drives containing hundreds of thousands of images and videos — some dating back to 2012.
Finding evidence of child pornography in that data, police rearrested Williamson on Friday and charged him Saturday.
Calgary cybercrime investigators began investigating nearly a week ago, after learning of the Canada Creep Twitter account, widely criticized for posting lewd and unsolicited photos and videos of females around Calgary.
One of those featured on the account included at least one underage girl.
Before it was shut down by Twitter early Tuesday, the account appeared to have been active for at least a year and racked up more than 17,000 followers.
Williamson next appears in court Monday.
