Aydin Coban was accused of extortion, harassment, communication with a young person to commit a sexual offence and possession and distribution of child pornography
NEW WESTMINSTER, B.C. — A Dutch man accused of tormenting British Columbia teen Amanda Todd via online threats has been found guilty of all charges he faced in connection with the case, a jury ruled on Saturday.
Jurors posed two questions earlier in the day, but delivered their verdict minutes after receiving answers. At the start of the trial in June, Coban pleaded not guilty to all charges he faced. He was not charged in relation to Todd's death. After piecing together the evidence in closing arguments, Kenworthy said the only inference the jury could draw was that Coban was guilty.
Outside the courtroom, the Port Coquitlam, B.C., teenager's mother said she was "elated" by what she called a "just" decision on all five counts.
