Child porn charges: man refused bail

A MAN charged with possessing 53 child pornography images will stay in jail until his next court appearance after bail was refused in Orange Local Court yesterday.

The images involving children as young as five and up to 14 years were seized by police in a raid on a house in Forbes on Friday morning.

Robert Owen McDonald, 23, also faced court charged with being in possession of an unlicensed and loaded firearm, and stolen number plates.

For more details on how police were alerted to the child pornography images read tomorrow's Central Western Daily.
