SUDBURY -- A Sudbury man who was arrested in October 2018 and charged with making child pornography -- among other offences -- is facing more related charges.

The case dates back to 2016, when the FBI in Sacramento, Calif., launched a global investigation into people making and distributing child pornography using an online storage website.

"In 2018, the FBI forwarded information to the Greater Sudbury Police Service, pointing to a Sudbury resident being involved," police said in a news release Wednesday.

The 33-year-old man from Greater Sudbury was arrested that October and charged by police's Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) unit for a number of child pornography offences, including making child porn and distributing it.

Data from devices seized during the investigation identified the man as the person responsible for the offences committed in the FBI investigation, police said.

The same man was investigated this year for breaching his bail conditions. On June 23, he was arrested and charged with accessing child pornography, possessing child pornography and two counts of breaching bail conditions.

He was in bail court Tuesday to answer to the charges. His name will not be released because of a publication ban imposed to protect the identity of victims.

His current charges are added to the ones he faces from 2018. They include two counts of possessing child porn, distributing child pornography, accessing child porn and making child porn.
