A disability worker at a Mt Druitt care home has been hit with a further 35 charges after he allegedly abused and filmed sexual videos with up to 11 adults and children.
The 20-year-old man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was charged with 16 offences last month related to the alleged production of child abuse material and the filming of intimate videos with residents in his care at a disability home in Mt Druitt.
The Eastern Creek man, who has since been stood down from the home, was today charged with 35 additional offences as part of the investigation.
Police allege the man abused a total of nine adults and two children between March and November 2019.
He now faces 20 counts of recording an intimate image without consent, nine counts of intimidation intending to cause fear of physical or mental harm, common assault (domestic violence related), three counts of distributing an intimate image, and two counts of possessing child abuse material.
It’s alleged some of the videos show the man physically and verbally abusing vulnerable residents in his role as a disability worker.
It’s alleged he also recorded sexually abusive and intimate videos on his mobile phone with two children aged four and 12.
Police documents allege he sexually touched a child under 10 in May last year, before he recorded child abuse material with a child under 16 the following month.
It’s further alleged the man filmed intimate videos and assaulted two males in July and October.
He was arrested at a business in Parramatta on May 1 before police raided his home in Eastern Creek.
Police said the man came under police notice for the alleged abuse of residents at the care home during investigations into unrelated drugs and weapons offences.
He has been refused bail.
The matter will return to Penrith Local Court on July 10.
