A 26 year-old Edmonton teacher was charged with three child pornography charges
An Edmonton Catholic junior high school teacher is facing multiple child pornography related charges
Diego Romero, Web Reporter & News Writer, CTV Edmonton
A 26-year-old junior high school teacher is facing multiple child pornography charges, ALERT said.
The investigation began in December, 2016, after the RCMP’s National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre tipped ALERT about a social media user allegedly uploading child pornography.
Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) and EPS arrested Marc Daigle Wednesday after a search warrant was conducted at his home where authorities seized multiple electronic devices.
Daigle – a music teacher at St. Nicholas Catholic Junior High School – has been charged with possessing, accessing and making child pornography available.
He was released on a number of conditions, including the inability to work at a place where children under the age of 16 could be present.
The Edmonton Catholic School District said Daigle no longer works at St. Nicholas Junior High School.
“ALERT has no information to suggest the teacher offended on any children but are encouraging anyone with information about this case to come forward,” ECSD also said in a press release.
Students at the school went home with a letter that reads the following:
“The safety of our students is always our first priority. The District’s Critical Response Team is at the school today talking with students and staff. Please use this as an opportunity to discuss this incident with your child…”
ICE encourages anyone with information about this case – or any other child exploitation offence – to contact EPS or cypertip.ca.
Daigle is scheduled to appear in court June 7.

| Taunton Crown Court |
Kira Rose Leverton, 29, of Stonehill, East Stoke, Stoke-sub-Hamdon, appeared in the dock before Somerset Magistrates, sitting at Yeovil.
She was charged that between November 20, 2015 and September 18, 2016, she made 188 indecent images of a child in the most serious Category A.
She was further alleged to have committed to similar offences involving 216 Category B images and 155 in Category C and being in possession of a prohibited image of a child between the same dates.
The defendant was also charged with three further similar offences involving 44 Category A movie clips; 13 Category B movie clips and two Category C movie clips of children.
Leverton was also charged that between June 26 and September 18 last year she possessed an extreme pornographic movie which portrayed a female person performing sexual intercourse with a horse which was grossly offensive, disgusting or otherwise of an obscene character.
Also, that between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 20015 she was alleged to have intentionally attempted to cause or incite a girl aged 13 to engage in sexual activity, namely engaging in online chat of a sexual nature, along with a second similar offence involving a boy aged 13 to 15.
Prosecutor Emma Lenanton said that the alleged offences came to light after police traced the defendant through her IP address as a result of a national investigation agency.
The defendant did not enter pleas to any of the alleged offences and the magistrates sent the case to Taunton Crown Court.
They adjourned all 10 matters against her until June 26 when she must appear before a pre trial hearing at Taunton.

Former priest jailed for 22 years for 'horrific
sexual abuse' of children in London
JONATHAN MITCHELL
A former priest who subjected London children to decades of “horrific sexual abuse” including rape has been jailed for 22 years.
Eugene Fitzpatrick, 68, was found to have sexually assaulted one boy in Islington, as well as raping a boy at Our Lady St Joseph’s Catholic Church in Hackney.
The offences were all committed in the 1960s, 70s, 80s and 90s, police said.
But police fear that the “predatory sex offender” could have assaulted other children in that time, and have pleaded for survivors of his abuse to come forward.
Fitzpatrick, of Raymond Avenue, in Canterbury, was convicted at Blackfriars Crown Court on Thursday, May 25, of seven counts of indecent assault, four counts of indecency with a child and two counts of buggery.
The indecent assault and indecency offences were committed against one victim in Islington. The buggery offences were committed against a second victim in Hackney.
He was sentenced to 22 years in prison the following day.
Wow. That's a huge sentence for the UK. Well done! This creep will be off the streets for the rest of his life making London a little safer.
Last year, another Catholic pedophile priest was sent to prison for messing up London kids.
Detective Constables Lorraine Simpson and Klementina Balint, the investigating officers, said: "Eugene Fitzpatrick is a predatory sex offender who abused his position of trust, preying on vulnerable youngsters and subjecting them to horrific sexual abuse over a period of years.
"In addition to the two known victims in this case, I believe that there may be additional survivors of Fitzpatrick’s actions who continue to suffer in silence. I urge anyone who has been abused by Eugene Fitzpatrick to contact police without delay.
"Specially trained officers will support victims throughout the investigative process and there are a number of additional support pathways that we are able to signpost."
Pedophile ring bust linked to arrest of A Current Affair's Ben McCormack
By 9NEWS
The arrest of A Current Affair reporter Ben McCormack has allegedly been linked to a pedophile ring membership list discovered by police in Western Australia.
A Current Affair is an award winning, week-night, TV, current affairs program in Australia.
Police were investigating a suspected child rapist when they uncovered phone records, computer files and other information about the ring, which allegedly included school teachers and Mr McCormack, 9NEWS understands.
The information was reportedly shared with police across the country, and led to the arrest of a West Australian Catholic primary school teacher.
The West Australian investigation began in February, when the alleged rapist was arrested and charged with 35 offences.
The Daily Telegraph reports a Queensland teacher was also arrested in the operation.
A Current Affair statement on Ben McCormack
Mr McCormack, 42, was arrested in Sydney on April 6 and has been charged with two counts of using a carriage service for child pornography material.
New South Wales police allege he engaged in explicit conversations about children with an adult male and discussed child pornography.
Mr McCormack was released on bail and was later admitted to a private hospital, where he continues to receive treatment.
Ben McCormack charges
His lawyer Sam Macedone said the charges against him have "nothing to do with the usual child pornography".
"None of the charges that have been levelled against him involves pictures or explicit details of young kids," he said.
"It's got nothing to do with the usual child pornography where you've got young children being photographed or in a video or anything like that. It's nothing more than a discussion and that's all there is."
Mr McCormack's case is scheduled to return to court on July 4.
Convicted pedophile walks free after molesting girl
By 9NEWS
The family of a nine-year-old girl is demanding answers after the Gold Coast man who molested her walked free without serving a day in prison.
Peter Andrews, 64, used video games and a dog to lure the girl to his home, where he sexually abused her.
He was found guilty of indecent treatment of a child but was handed a suspended sentence after telling the court he has terminal cancer.
Pedophile's wife blames child
Mr Andrews' wife recently told the victim’s grandmother, who cannot be identified, it was the child and her family’s "fault" for her husband’s behaviour.
"Because you're negligent parents, her parents didn't care. That's why she used to come over and stay," Mrs Andrews said.
"She's a s--- at 14 sleeping around, did she learn that off you?"
14? I thought she was 9? Apparently the woman is an extremely bad judge of age, and, perhaps, character.
Mrs Andrews threatened to call police when 9NEWS questioned her about her comments today.
"It has nothing to do with me. f— off."
The victim's grandparents said Mrs Andrews' words were “absolutely unbelievable” and that Mr Andrews was a "not a man," but "an animal."
The family is now dropping off pamphlets to warn other young families about Mr Andrews, who often lives just metres from a Southport childcare centre.
"If I had little kids I'd be locking my door," a local woman said.
I think I would be locking my door anyway, as much from fear of Mrs Andrews.
From IBT
Andrews is not the first offender who avoided a jail term. Earlier this year, a 23-year-old Kiwi was sentenced to only eight months of home detention after admitting she sexually violated her 1-year-old son. She filmed the horrendous act at the request of a paedophile in 2014.
In October last year, a British offender was found with more than 137,000 indecent images of children but avoided a jail sentence. He originally faced up to five years’ term but was instead handed a suspended sentence after telling a judge that he wanted to become a father.
The sheer insanity of the judge accommodating a pedophile in becoming a father is simply astounding.
The judge said that he had no previous convictions and had never distributed or made any images or videos himself. The offender was ordered to pay £250 (AU$423) and sign the sex offenders register.
Paedophile priest admits charges against three new victims
TOM LEE/FAIRFAX NZ
A former Catholic priest jailed for molesting boys in the 1970s and 80s has admitted charges against three new victims.
Mark Mannix Brown, 74, appeared in the Hamilton District Court on Tuesday, where he pleaded guilty to four charges of indecent assault and attempted sodomy.
Some of the charges are representative.
He was remanded on continuing bail by Judge Kim Saunders, to be sentenced on July 19, following the compiling of a pre-sentence assessment and a restorative justice conference with one of his victims.
Brown was jailed for 15 months in 1990 for sexual offending against altar boys.
The agreed summary of facts reveal that the first and youngest of his three new victims was aged between 6 and 9 years old and was in the care of an orphanage in Auckland in the mid 1970s.
Brown's sister was a nun who taught at the orphanage at that time, and he was a frequent visitor to the establishment.
Under the guise of having one-on-one "spiritual time" with the boy, he made him sit in his lap and kiss him.
On at least one occasion he attempted to sodomise the boy.
He told the boy that their interactions were "our special secret" and if he told anyone he would be separated from his siblings, who were also wards of the orphanage.
Another victim was aged 16 and 17 and was an invited guest at Brown's family farm in Te Mata, near Raglan.
Brown would make nocturnal visits to the teenager, where he sexually abused him. They also engaged in anal intercourse.
The victim said he was confused and did not know what to do, as he looked up to Brown as a father figure.
The third victim, aged 9, was an altar boy where Brown was a priest.
At an unspecified date between 1982 and 1986, the boy was in the church, when he became unwell and vomited onto the floor of the church.
Brown led the victim to a nearby building, known as the Priests' Building, where he let the boy throw up into the toilet there.
Brown rubbed the boy's back as he vomited, but at one point began fondling his genitals instead.
He stopped when the boy looked at him.
Brown was represented in court by barrister Mark Sturm.
Brown also made headlines in 2008, when it was revealed he was living in a house in Auckland with brain-injured serial child molester Vivian Kitching.
The pair had been allowed to reside in a house on Mt Eden Rd, just 700 metres from Three Kings School – in spite of a warning from Corrections Department psychologists.
