'Project Maverick' nabs Sudburian for sex offence against child

A 28-year-old Sudbury man is among those charged as part of the OPP’s Project Maverick, the provincial strategy to protect children from sexual abuse and exploitation on the internet.

In addition to announcing the names of ongoing investigations, including the adult male in Sudbury who is charged with two counts of “Agreement or arrangement – sexual offence against child,” the OPP offered a video release and the statistics for one month: October 2022. The 27 participating police agencies include: Barrie, Belleville, Brantford, Chatham-Kent, Cornwall, Durham, Greater Sudbury, Guelph, Halton, Hamilton, Kingston, London, Niagara, North Bay, Ontario Provincial Police , Ottawa, Peel, Peterborough, Sarnia, Sault Ste. Marie, Thunder Bay, Timmins, Toronto, Waterloo, Windsor, Woodstock and York.

The OPP noted that part of Project Maverick’s success is the ability to work in partnership with several jurisdictions across Ontario. In the release video, Det.-Sgt. Vijay Shetty with Toronto Police Services details an investigation led by TPS that led them to an unnamed “remote Northern Ontario community” where a person had expressed an interest in kidnapping a child for the purposes of exploitation.
