Former Springbank high school teacher facing child pornography charges
A former teacher from Springbank Community High School is facing more charges.
Timothy Bailey, 49, of Calgary, was charged with child luring, making sexually explicit material available to a child and sexual exploitation in January after a female student reported 'inappropriate behaviour.'
On Wednesday, Cochrane RCMP announced that after further investigation, Bailey had been arrested and charged with two additional offences: accessing child pornography and possession of child pornography.
He has been released from custody and is scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 9.
RCMP say Bailey is no longer a teacher with Rocky View Schools.

Hit-and-run driver sought after parked cars damaged in West Vancouver, police say
West Vancouver Police Department cruisers are shown in an undated image. Authorities are searching for a hit-and-run suspect after several parked cars were damaged in West Vancouver last week. The West Vancouver Police Department said officers received multiple reports that a pickup truck driver had struck three parked cars along Bellevue Avenue on Friday night, then fled the scene. Police said they later located a suspect vehicle – a dark blue 2007 Toyota Tacoma with damage to the front passenger side – abandoned in the alley behind West Vancouver Memorial Library. Days later, authorities asked anyone with information on the hit-and-runs to come forward. 'We are particularly interested to hear from the public if they can provide a description or have any other relevant details regarding the driver of the vehicle,' said Sgt. Chris Bigland, in a statement. Investigators are interested in hearing suspect descriptions either 'from when he hit the cars on Bellevue or when he exited his vehicle behind the library,' Bigland said. Police do have a vague description of the suspect as a white, 'heavier set' man who 'appears to be balding.' West Vancouver police asked anyone with further information to contact them at 604-925-7300.

Abbotsford acupuncturist accused of treating ‘sensitive areas' without explanation or consent
An Abbotsford acupuncturist has been temporarily banned from exposing certain parts of his patients' bodies during treatment because of a misconduct allegation. The College of Complementary Health Professionals of B.C. took the 'extraordinary action' against Jun Hao (Harvey) Zeng after receiving a complaint that he had 'undraped and performed treatment on particularly sensitive areas on the patient's body without explaining the treatment to be provided and without consent.' The allegations against Zeng are under investigation and have not been proven, but the college decided a strong 'prima facie' case had been presented, and restrictions on Zeng's practice were necessary 'to protect the public during an investigation.' The college took its extraordinary action, the terms of which are published online, on July 28. Zeng is not permitted to undrape the 'anterior pelvis' or the buttock of any of his patients below a designated level, and may only undrape a patient's buttock to the designated level if he has 'the express prior written consent of the patient.' Zeng is also required to post the restrictions in English on any online booking pages he uses, in the waiting room of any clinic he practises in and in any treatment room in which he works. The copy of the restrictions posted in the waiting room must also be posted in Chinese, according to the extraordinary action. Additionally, Zeng is required to provide the college with either a copy of or electronic access to his calendar every Friday by 6 p.m., along with 'the name and contact information for each patient he treated in the preceding week.' A college-appointed inspector will conduct random on-site audits of Zeng's practice while the extraordinary action is in place. 'The inquiry committee panel considered the allegations serious and found that there are some factors that render the alleged conduct likely to recur,' the document reads. 'Therefore, the panel determined that the public must be protected by an interim order during the investigation, pending any disciplinary hearing.' 'Having weighed the different options and the circumstances of this case and having considered the impact on the registrant, the inquiry committee panel concluded that the above-described limits and conditions are proportionate and sufficient to protect the public during the investigation or pending any discipline hearing,' the extraordinary action concludes.
