Teddy bear used to spy on children, police say
Pornography charges

Durham Regional Police are warning parents to check their children's toys after officers discovered that a Bowmanville man facing child pornography charges had retrofitted a teddy bear with a video camera in its eyes.

"There is an indication that there may be more spy cameras. Anyone who has been given toys or stuffed animals by him [should] check them," said Detective Randy Norton, who had the white teddy bear in question within reach.

The battery-operated camera -- which peered out from behind the ursine toy's glass eyes -- had a wireless remote on it and could be operated from some distance away, police said.

On April 28, police received information that a man had engaged in an inappropriate sexual relationship with two girls, aged three and 11, said Det. Norton, who is with the force's sexual assault unit.

The man knew the girls' family, Det. Norton added.

When officers arrived at a Glen Street address in south Oshawa that evening, they found the man talking with a 17-yearold girl in an adjacent park.

After being approached by police, the man admitted to having a handgun and "reached for it," Det. Norton said.

Two officers subdued him after a struggle.

The following day, police raided the man's Hobbs Drive home in Bowmanville and seized computer equipment, a number of tapes allegedly depicting him sexually assaulting young children and a wristband device similar to a watch capable of recording images, police said.

"The problem is, after reviewing some of the evidence, it is possible that some of the parents

would not have known that he was videotaping [the children]," Det. Norton said.

Police allege that the man had also hidden video cameras inside the room of a female victim.

Det. Norton said the accused was active with the Bowmanville Salvation Army Community Church. "He was around the youth within the church."

Captain Miriam Stevens, of the Salvation Army, said the organization was informed of the police investigation about three days ago, and she was not in a position to comment.

"We are shocked and horrified by these allegations and our primary focus continues to be the welfare of the children involved," she said, reading from a prepared statement.

Ian Matthew Dean, 24, is charged with sexual assault, sexual interference, invitation to sexual touching and carrying a concealed weapon. He is also facing charges of making and possessing child pornography and voyeurism.

He is scheduled to appear in court on May 9.

"...and this is the moral of the story, little Susie. Don't get undressed in front of Mr Teddy. He's probably perving on you.

Night night! Don't let the paedos bite!"
