Hundreds Of Victims Identified In Child Porn Case

More than 300 victims have been identified in relation to a child pornography investigation in Thunder Bay.

City police say a local man was arrested Thursday, and faces 43 charges related to voyeurism, as well as making and possessing child pornography.

Police point out incidents involving the victims happened throughout Thunder Bay, but are not saying where to protect the investigation as they ask for public assistance.

Police add they made the arrest to prevent more victimization, and more victims will be notified.

The 43 charges are not related to incidents involving physical touching.

Charged is 42-year-old Brent Mehagan, who makes a bail hearing Friday.

  • Originally from southern Ontario, Jason found his way here and fell in love with the community and music scene of Thunder Bay over twenty years ago. In between various stints on radio, television and writing, Jason is a dad, a partner and (some would consider) a zoo keeper (seriously, he has a LOT of pets).
