An Edmonton dad who was busted after a tip by Italian police has admitted making pornographic videos of his children and exchanging the filth with fellow sickos.
The 38-year-old man — who cannot be named under a court-ordered publication ban protecting the identity of the victims — pleaded guilty Tuesday in Provincial Court to seven charges relating to making, distributing, accessing and possessing child pornography.
The incestuous sex offender, who earlier also pleaded guilty to sexually interfering with an underage daughter, is slated to have a sentencing hearing on June 29.
Crown prosecutor Diane Hollinshead told court the man made child porn videos of his youngest daughter, who is now seven years old, from the time she was in diapers
He was arrested at his home on the day of the girl’s seventh birthday party after an investigation triggered by Italian police finding disturbing sexual images of the man and his daughter on an Italian suspect’s computer in 2011.
Court heard some of the videos showed the girl wearing a Halloween cat mask while at Calaway Park near Calgary and others were on a bed with Little Mermaid sheets identical to ones seen at the man’s Edmonton home.
The little girl eventually told police her father had repeatedly sexually abused her in various rooms of their home while her mother was out or at work.
After the man was arrested, the girl told a female detective that “nothing has happened since her dad left and that makes her happy.”
Hollinshead also told court the man had sent child porn videos to his creepy Italian pal which he had surreptitiously made of his other daughter, now 13, while she was in the shower and asleep in her bedroom.
As well, Hollinshead said the man admitted surreptitiously filming his stepdaughter, now 18, while she was in the shower and a friend of the teen’s who was sleeping over.
Police seized the man’s computers after his arrest and found hundreds of stored images of child porn. Chat logs were also found in which the man spoke with others about sex with children and exchanged child porn images.
The man was charged in September and, at that time, members of the Alberta Law Enforcement Response Team’s (ALERT) northern Internet Child Exploitation Unit (ICE) said they were tipped off by authorities in Italy about pornographic material involving a child that appeared to have originated from an Edmonton address.
Investigators went to the address and found a mother and her three children, who were taken to the Zebra Child Protection Centre. The father came home a short time later and was arrested.
Det. Kevin Fald said the mother was not aware of what was going on. “It appears the family was caught completely off guard,” said Fald. “This is turning a family upside down and it’s very traumatic for them.”
Hollinshead is seeking a prison term in the double digits.
