Intimidation trial set for Windsor man convicted in extortion and child pornography case

The legal woes are continuing for a Windsor man who was found guilty on extortion and child pornography charges more than two years ago in London.

Today via zoom, his Charter of Rights application was denied by Justice James Stribopoulos, and he determined that Jason Nassr, 44, must stand trial on a charge of intimidating a justice system participant.

It all stems from his earlier testimony during his case in January of 2023, and the judge found that it could be used against him at his next trial.

Citing a number of other cases, Justice Stribopoulos said, “This court must follow decisions of the Supreme Court of Canada and the Court of Appeal.”

Nassr was originally charged and convicted in connection with his online actions on “Creeper Hunter TV”, a vigilante-type website which claimed to expose child predators.

His new trial is set for August 11th in London and is expected to last three days.
