Veteran Victoria Radio Host Al Ferraby Arrested on Child-Luring Charges
Al Ferraby, a 59-year-old radio host, faces charges for alleged telecommunication attempts to lure minors under 16 and 18, with investigations initiated by Vancouver Police in 2024.
- In February 2025, veteran Victoria radio personality Al Ferraby was arrested and subsequently faced legal action for two separate allegations of child luring linked to incidents in both Victoria and Vancouver.
- The Vancouver Police Department’s Internet Child Exploitation Unit started probing Ferraby in September 2024, culminating in his arrest and charges being brought by the BC Prosecution Service on September 17th.

- The case remains active, with legal processes ongoing and Ferraby suspended from his duties as authorities and the media maintain discretion in sharing details during the investigation.
