One of two teens charged in the Rehtaeh Parsons child pornography case is now accused of threatening to kill the girl's father, Glen Canning.
Police said Saturday that a 19-year-old Eastern Passage, N.S., man is facing charges of uttering death threats and criminal harassment after allegedly making threats online.
The general investigation unit of the RCMP and Halifax Regional Police launched an investigation after getting a complaint on Aug. 2, 2013.
The charges stem from comments written underneath a YouTube video posted by the victim, a 49-year-old man. Police said other threats were made on Wordpress, an online publishing platform.
Police have not released identities, but sources confirm to CBC News the alleged victim is Canning and the suspect is one of the teens charged with child pornography-related offences.
Police said they executed search warrants to get IP addresses and other information. Officers seized computer and electronic storage devices from a home in Eastern Passage.
The teen is scheduled to appear in Dartmouth provincial court on May 20.
Last August, Canning said publicly that he'd received an online death threat on his YouTube channel.
"'I know where you live, I know your face, I know your car, I know your house, I know where you work. And you better shut up, bud, or you're going to be joining your daughter.' Just stuff like that. It's pretty sad, actually," Canning said at the time.
The Parsons family says the girl was sexually assaulted by four boys at a party when she was 15 years old, and then a digital photo of the incident was circulated at school and on social media.
The girl committed suicide last year.
Police initially did not lay charges, but reopened their investigation and have charged two teens with child pornography-related offences. That case is due back in court later this month.
Parsons' death made international headlines and prompted new laws cracking down on cyberbullying.
Earlier this month more than 150 people marched in Cole Harbour, N.S., to mark the first anniversary of her death.
