A Canadian national caught with child abuse images and videos has been sentenced to 10 months' home detention before being deported. The judge said his then-partner found a deleted folder containing a video of child exploitation material on his laptop and questioned him about it last March. Kuyten was arrested and his devices were seized with a search uncovering 2680 images and 357 videos that were identified as objectionable. Kuyten previously admitted to buying and saving two separate packages of child exploitation material about a year prior, but denied looking at every video or image. She also ordered that the devices and child abuse material were destroyed.
