Robert Campbell, a 42-year-old Ottawa man, faces nearly 200 charges of identity fraud, defamation and criminal harassment involving 38 people across Canada, the U.S. and U.K.
Ottawa police announced the charges Friday morning after an eight-month investigation involving law enforcement in B.C., Ontario, New Brunswick and Halifax, as well as Michigan in the U.S., and Hertfordshire and London in the U.K.
Campbell is facing:
- 27 counts of criminal harassment.
- 85 counts of defamation libel.
- 69 counts of identity fraud.
He is expected to appear in an Ottawa courtroom today.
At the courthouse on Friday morning, a woman who identified herself as Campbell's wife, but refused to give her name, told the CBC's Ashley Burke that she was shocked by the charges. She said she was "surviving" the news and that she didn't know what her husband was up to online.
She also said she hadn't had the opportunity to speak with Campbell since his arrest on Thursday.
Investigators said the suspect used software to conceal IP addresses.
RCMP and Ottawa police worked together by "utilizing investigative techniques that allowed for the identification of the unidentified suspect who was using internet anonymity software," Ottawa police said in a media release issued Friday.
A search warrant was executed Thursday at the suspect's home in Ottawa's west-end Britannia Park neighbourhood, police sources told CBC News Friday.
At least three computers were seized.
Multiple aliases were used in the alleged attacks, and the alleged victims include men, women and their families, police sources said.
