Child sexual exploitation investigators said Mark-Anthony Rivest, who appeared in court on Thursday, contacted victims on social media networks using the name Raphael Hamlet and faces charges of luring, extortion, possession and production of child pornography.
Police seized computer equipment for analysis after searching Rivest's home.

The Facebook page he used showed he befriended a number of teenaged girls and young women and asked to chat.
