The United States Department of Homeland Security also helped out.

Yukon RCMP investigations have led to arrests for child luring and possession of child pornography in Canada and the United States. According to a press release from this morning, last year, Yukon RCMP received multiple reports of child luring from local victims. Because of the reports, the Yukon RCMP Internet Child Exploitation investigator, with the help of the United States Department of Homeland Security, identified five suspects in various locations across Canada and the United States. Investigative files, with information received directly from the victims, were shared with the agencies of jurisdiction who used the information to arrest and charge four suspects for offences including child luring and possession of child pornography. One of the investigations is still ongoing.
