2014 ONCA 840

In 2014 ONCA 840, Mr. B hid a video camera in his bathroom to film his 13-year-old niece as she changed her clothes. He also lured a 16-year-old girl off of the internet using Facebook, grooming her over time and taking advantage of her poverty by offering to pay her to pose nude for him. He took over 600 photos of the girl that constituted child pornography. He pleaded guilty to voyeurism, producing child pornography, and luring off the internet. He was sentenced to four-years’ incarceration, which he appealed. The sentence was seen as fit and the appeal was dismissed.
