Leaside day camp operator charged in child porn investigation

By News Staff

A 32-year-old day camp operator is facing numerous charges in a child pornography investigation.

Police say they searched a home in the Bayview and Moore Avenue area on Thursday following an online investigation into the trading of child sexual abuse material between April 2017 and May 2017.

Christopher MacDonald has been charged with two counts of accessing child pornography, two counts of possessing child pornography and one count each of making child pornography available and making child pornography.

CityNews has learned that MacDonald has owned and operated AFTERFOUR, a day camp in Leaside for children between the ages of 6 and 14 for the last four years. However, police say they have no information at this time that any of the children he works with at the camp are involved in this case.

A updated statement posted on the camp’s website said all programs would be suspended “until further notice.”
