The next step in the child pornography case against former Sudbury reporter Callam Rodya may happen Oct. 22.
By then, it will have been more than 20 months since he was arrested and charged with possession of child pornography, accessing child pornography, making available child pornography and one count of possession of a Schedule 1 substance (cocaine).
In January this year, Rodya was expected to enter a plea, however, that did not happen. His matter was further adjourned, and then the courts were shut down as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Rodya has been out on bail since February 2019. He is a former reporter at Sudbury.com and was a reporter with CTV in Sudbury at the time he was arrested and charged.
