A fifth man has been arrested in Sydney over an alleged international satanic paedophile ring allegedly led by a far-left homosexual aboriginal journalist.
David Charles Turner, 42, was arrested at an address at Sydney Olympic Park on Thursday where Sex Crimes Squad detectives seized a number of electronics allegedly relevant to their investigation and small amounts of methamphetamine and ketamine.
He was taken to Auburn Police Station where he was charged with “use carriage etc to access child abuse material”, “use carriage service make available child abuse”, “person possesses bestiality material”, and two counts of “possess prohibited drug”, and refused bail to appear in court today.

The arrest comes after alleged ringleader Landon Ashton Versace Germanotta-Mills, 26, was arrested in Waterloo, and Benjamin Raymond Drysdale, 46, Mark Andrew Sendecky, 42, and Stuart Woods Riches, 39, were arrested in Malabar in November 2025 by Strike Force Constantine.
All four will face court again later this month.
The taskforce was established by State Crime Command’s Child Exploitation Internet Unit to investigate the online distribution of child sexual abuse involving ritualistic or satanic themes.
Police allege they then uncovered a Sydney-based paedophile network actively involved in possessing, distributing, and facilitating this material through a website administered internationally.

Detectives allege Germanotta-Mills, who runs a news site called Underground Media Network, played a leading role in the alleged paedophile ring.
A former Network 10 intern, Germanotta-Mills describes himself as a “Wiradjuri investigative journalist” and regularly posts far-left extremist content on social media, including demands for Australia Day to be abolished, promotion of Black Lives Matter, and articles attacking neo-Nazis.
He also has multiple posts calling himself gay and celebrating homosexuality and “transgenderism”.
Sex Crimes Squad Detective Superintendent Jayne Doherty said after this arrest the thousands of videos allegedly exchanged by the international network were “particularly devastating” and that the group allegedly used confronting symbols and rituals to “torture” children aged from infants to age 12, and animals.
