Former NSW Liberal MP Rory Amon to Stand Trial on Child Sex Charges

Rory Amon, accused of sexually assaulting a teenage boy in 2017, has pleaded not guilty to all 10 charges in a Sydney court.

  • Rory Amon, a former NSW Liberal MP, faces 10 charges, including sexual intercourse with a child under 14 and other child sex offences.
  • The allegations involve the sexual assault of a 13-year-old boy on Sydney's northern beaches in 2017.
  • Amon formally pleaded not guilty to all charges during a hearing at Sydney's Downing Centre Local Court on Thursday.
  • He resigned from his position as the MP for Pittwater in August 2024, shortly after being charged, prompting a by-election won by independent Jacqui Scruby.
  • The case is set to return to court on March 28, when a trial date is expected to be set.
