Amon was charged on the 30th of August 2024 with ten counts of child sex offences. These included five counts of sexual intercourse with a person aged over 10 and under 14, two counts of attempted sexual intercourse with a child over 10 and under 14, two counts of indecent assault on a person under 16, and committing an act of indecency with a person under 16.

Rory Amon is to appear at Manly Local Court at the end of October.
