An doctor has been charged with making child pornography after turning himself in to police in Halifax.
Dr. Curtis Arlo Steele was arrested on Friday after turning himself over to police in relation to a child pornography investigation launched in January.
Halifax Regional Police say that the investigation began after receiving information that in 2004, a doctor took naked photos of a 14-year-old girl under his care.
The 82-year-old doctor is scheduled to appear in Halifax Provincial Court on June 16, to face one count of making child pornography.
Arlo was released from custody under conditions to not communicate with the victim or children under the age of 16 and not be within 50 meters of a place known to be frequented by children.
