When a man took his malfunctioning computer in for repair, he got a lot more than he bargained for.
That repair led to a five month long child pornography investigation and charges against a 77 year old Bracebridge man.
In May of this year, OPP in Bracebridge were called to a local computer repair shop about a computer that had been dropped off.
A computer repair technician noticed that the computer contained images of child sexual abuse.
The computer was turned over to the OPP Child Sexual Exploitation Unit.
When police experts investigated and analyzed the computer, a large quantity of child sexual abuse images were found.
Police then arrested and charged Barry (Bart) Harris, age 77, of Bracebridge with one count of possession of child pornography.
Harris was released and is scheduled to appear in court today in Bracebridge.
