A former childcare worker allegedly recorded child abuse material on his electronic devices before posting them to the dark web, with one veteran officer describing the investigation as 'one of the most horrific child abuse cases'. Warning: Distressing.
A former childcare worker has been charged with 1,623 child abuse offences against 91 children under his care in Queensland, New South Wales and overseas.
The AFP has revealed it has charged a Gold Coast man with 1,623 child abuse offences against 91 children at centres in Queensland, NSW and overseas. Picture: NCA NewsWire / Gaye Gerard All the alleged victims were pre-pubescent girls, with 64 children from Queensland and 23 from NSW. The remaining four kids are overseas.
Detectives were also positive all of the Australian children recorded in the alleged abuse material had been identified. Australian Federal Police Assistant Commissioner Justine Gough on Tuesday said Operation Tenterfield was formed after counterparts in Queensland found alleged child abuse material, including images and videos, on the dark web in 2014.
However, eight years later the AFP examined some images which had"distinguishable clues" that were able to help investigators link them to a Brisbane childcare centre.
