Blackfalds Man Arrested on Child Porn Charges

Calgary… A 58-year-old Blackfalds man has been arrested on child pornography charges by the Alberta Law Enforcement Response Team (ALERT).

ALERT’s Internet Child Exploitation team, with the assistance of Blackfalds RCMP, arrested Anthony Gordon Murray on September 29th. The 58-year-old man is being charged with possession, accessing, and making available child pornography.

“Unfortunately child exploitation is prevalent in all communities big or small. By working with our partners, such as Blackfalds RCMP, we can help protect children from across Alberta,” said S/Sgt. John Guigon.

The investigation commenced after ALERT investigators received information from the RCMP’s National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre (NCECC) on child pornography being accessed online.

ALERT was established and is funded by the Alberta Government and is a compilation of the province’s most sophisticated law enforcement resources committed to tackling serious and organized crime. Nearly 400 municipal police, RCMP, and sheriffs work in ALERT.
