As a result of an investigation launched by the Brantford Police Service Internet Child Exploitation Unit (ICE), in May 2025, a 44-year-old Brantford man has been arrested and is facing child pornography charges. 

A lost cell phone was found by a citizen in May 2025. When the citizen accessed the phone in an attempt to locate the owner, concerning images were observed, causing the citizen to turn the cell phone over to police.

A search warrant to examine the phone was granted and detectives working in the ICE Unit found evidence of child pornography on the device. 

As a result of the investigation, on January 19, 2026, a 44-year-old male from Brantford was arrested and is facing two counts of Possession of Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation material and one count of Make Child Sexual Abuse and Exploitation Material contrary to the Criminal Code.

The Brantford Police ICE Unit are continuing their investigation. Anyone with information related to these cases or has information relating to sexual crimes against children is urged to call the Brantford Police ICE Unit at 519-756-7050.

Tipsters who wish to remain anonymous are asked to contact Brant-Brantford Crime Stoppers at 519-750-8477 or 1-800-222-8477. Alternatively, a web tip may be submitted at: https://www.crimestoppersbb.com/submit-a-tip/

The Brantford Police Service joined the Provincial Strategy to Protect Children from Sexual Exploitation on the Internet in 2007. The Provincial Strategy is comprised of the OPP Child Exploitation Section and 27 municipal police services. This Project has been made possible by a grant from the Ministry of the Solicitor General.

The Brantford Police Service supports this strategy and has recognized that images of children and child abuse placed on the internet lead to perpetual victimization.

The online exploitation of children continues to be a challenge for investigators due to its sheer volume, global reaches, and anonymity; however, the Brantford Police Service is committed to ensuring the safety of our community’s children and taking action against online sexual abuse and sexual exploitation of children.
