Queensland police raided the home of a 49‑year‑old man in Ormiston, south‑east of Brisbane, on Thursday and charged him with 99 child‑sex offences, including administering a website that hosted child exploitation material, according to the Sydney Morning Herald.
What happened
Investigators from the state child‑exploitation taskforce, Argos, seized several storage devices they say contained illegal material. The man was charged with possessing child abuse material, operating the website and using a carriage service to distribute the material. He was remanded in custody by a Brisbane magistrate on Friday and is due back in court on 16 October.
What the reports add
The article links the case to a separate Brisbane offender, Kevin Raymond Doyle, 62, who pleaded guilty to almost 100 offences after spending $5,000 over three years to livestream 28 child‑sex shows from the Philippines. Police say the AFP investigation rescued seven victims aged five to 20.
What was said
The AFP statement said victims were subjected to repeated, degrading abuse over prolonged periods and that the offender had communicated directly with children about further offences.
How it came about
The raid follows a broader crackdown on online child‑exploitation networks in Queensland, building on earlier investigations that have led to multiple arrests and victim rescues.
