Police have arrested a trans woman from the Laurentians for various child pornography offences. The accused is also a repeat pedophile.
Krystel Lauzon, 39, was arrested Thursday by police officers from the Sûreté du Québec’s Internet Sexual Exploitation of Children Investigation Team.
He is accused of having accessed and possessed child pornographic material. She also faces a charge of breach of conditions.
The police conducted a search of the suspect’s home and computer equipment was seized for analysis.
On site, the police also seized around a hundred methamphetamine tablets and 45 packs of contraband cigarettes.
Krystel Lauzon is not her first run-in with the law in matters of child pornography. The one who formerly bore the name Danny Lauzon was sentenced to four years of imprisonment in 2022, after admitting his guilt to charges of production, distribution and possession of child pornographic material.
The pedophile was also arrested for possession of child pornography in October 2020, but had benefited from a stay of proceedings in the case.
Krystel Lauzon, who openly displays herself as a trans woman on social networks, has published numerous messages in recent years defending the rights of transgender people.
