A 57-year-old Guelph man is facing child pornography charges after a lengthy investigation by police.

In 2012, computers were seized by Toronto police from a business in that city and analysis of the computers led to an investigation by Guelph Police.

Officers executed a search warrant at a home in Guelph on Wednesday, and seized computer systems and external storage devices, among other items.

Robert Spencer has been charged with possession of child pornography and accessing child pornography.

He’ll appear in court June 5th.
