A Langley man has been charged with possession of child pornography.
Sean David McIntyre, 27, was charged after an investigation by the B.C. Integrated Child Exploitation Unit and the Integrated Sexual Predator Observation Team, said RCMP Staff Sgt. Tyler Svendson.
Svendson, with the Child Exploitation Unit, said McIntyre has also bee charged with breach of recognizance, and that the suspect is known to police.
He said this arrest was not part of a wider investigation.
Following a Feb. 19 bail hearing, McIntryre has been ordered held in custody until his trial.
“The Integrated Child Exploitation Unit remains committed to catching people who possess child pornography,†said Svendson. “Each time those illegal images are viewed a child is re-victimized.â€
McIntyre was already before the courts on a number of other charges of child porn related charges. Online B.C. court records show a number of charges including accessing, importing or distributing, and possessing child pornography, with suspected offences taking place from December 2012 to January 2013. He was scheduled to appear in court on April 1 on those charges, for what court records show is a sentencing hearing.
