After the court appearance, Amon faced public backlash as onlookers confronted him, shouting allegations of being a 'child abuser.'

In his resignation statement, Amon expressed that the charges hindered his ability to fully represent his community.

A bail variation was granted, allowing Amon to reside at a different address while awaiting trial, under conditions that require him to report daily to police and prohibit contact with his alleged victim.

During his court appearance at Sydney's Downing Centre Local Court on February 27, 2025, Amon pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Following the allegations, State Liberal leader Mark Speakman called for Amon's immediate resignation from the party, highlighting the seriousness of the charges.

Amon, who resigned from the NSW parliament in August 2024 shortly after being charged with the sexual assault of a 13-year-old boy, faces a total of ten charges.

Roderick 'Rory' Amon, a former NSW Liberal MP, has been formally committed to stand trial for multiple alleged sexual assaults against a teenage boy that occurred in 2017.

These charges include five counts of sexual intercourse with a child aged 10 to 14, two counts of indecent assault of a person under 16, two counts of attempted sexual intercourse with a child aged 10 to 14, and one count of committing an act of indecency with a person under 16.

The prosecutor confirmed that the case is ready to be committed to the District Court for trial, with an arraignment scheduled for March 28, 2025, when a trial date is expected to be set.

Magistrate Susan McIntyre formally committed Amon for trial, reaffirming his not guilty plea.

Amon's resignation triggered a by-election in October 2024, which was won by independent candidate Jacqui Scruby, who succeeded him in the seat of Pittwater.

Amon was arrested in August 2024 and charged with serious offences, including five counts of sexual intercourse with a person aged over 10 and under 14.
