Joshua Brown, 27, faces 156 charges over alleged child sexual abuse at Melbourne daycare centres, with court dates delayed and evidence released under redaction.
Joshua Dale Brown, 27, accused of multiple child sexual offences in Melbourne’s childcare sector, is due back in court on April 21 as his defence seeks more time to review 156 charges.
His lawyers requested delays and media restrictions for safety and negotiation reasons, but the magistrate ruled charge sheets must be released in redacted form to protect complainants’ identities.
The charges stem from alleged abuse at four daycare centres, including incidents involving food contamination and production of child abuse material.
Police found a cache of abusive material linked to Brown, revealing he worked at 24 centres over eight years.
Additional charges include sexual assault, bestiality, and other offences unrelated to childcare.
The case has sparked national concern about childcare safety.
