Sydney childcare worker charged with allegedly producing child abuse material
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA, JUL 31 – David James allegedly produced child abuse material involving 10 children under six at six Sydney childcare centres between 2021 and 2024, police said.
- After suppression orders were revoked, court publicly named childcare worker David James in Sydney’s north, who was charged by the AFP in October and remains in custody.
- James is accused of taking explicit photos of 10 children aged five and six while employed at six out-of-school-hours care services in Sydney’s northern suburbs and CBD between April 2021 and May 2024.
- Investigation began last year after the AFP found child abuse material on the dark web, examining 142,000 files on his devices.
- The AFP and NSW Health have contacted all impacted families and offered support after sending letters to around 1,200 families whose children may have been affected.
- Parliament passed new laws granting the federal government power to cut funding to centres that fail safety standards, spearheaded by Education Minister Jason Clare.
