A 39-year-old Burnaby man is facing nine sex-related charges, police say.
Adam Joseph Woolacott was charged March 9 with five counts of sexual interference of a person under 16; two counts of inviting, counselling or inciting a person under 16 to touch a person for a sexual purpose; one count of child luring; and one count of making sexually explicit material available to a person under 16, according to a release from Burnaby RCMP Wednesday (April 5).
Burnaby RCMP say police were contacted about allegations involving a man and a child victim on March 3, 2022. They had initially met online and later met in person.
Woolacott has been known to have an active digital presence, said Cpl. Michelle Hurtubise, with Burnaby’s Child Abuse and Sexual Offence unit.
“As with any situation, please use caution with those you are interacting with both online and in person.”
Woolacott has several court-ordered conditions, which include:
