Former NSW MP Rory Amon has been found guilty of raping and indecently assaulting a 13-year-old boy inside a car park toilet a decade ago.
The 37-year-old faced a NSW Supreme Court trial on one count of sexual intercourse with a person aged between 10 and 14, and indecently assaulting a child. The jury delivered guilty verdicts on both counts on Friday afternoon.
The court heard Amon connected with the teenager on a hookup website before they agreed to meet at the boy’s parents’ apartment block on the northern beaches in 2017. They walked into the toilet where Amon raped and assaulted the boy, the jury found.
Amon had argued he thought the boy was 17.
