Grand Valley man charged with child pornography and weapons offences

A man from Grand Valley is facing weapons and child pornography-related charges.

Members of the OPP Child Sexual Exploitation Unit, Digital Forensic Unit and Dufferin County OPP executed a search warrant Wednesday at a residence in Grand Valley. That action came after a four-month investigation into possession of child sexual abuse material.

43-year-old William Chester Elliott is charged with possession of child pornography, distributing child pornography, possession of a prohibited device, and careless storage of a firearm.

Multiple electronic devices were seized for further examination.

The accused appears in Orangeville court on August 13.
