Dr. Benjamin Levin |
Levin will plead guilty to some offences, but not all of the seven charges that were laid against the renowned educator.
The details of the offences will be revealed during the March court appearance when Levin appears before Justice Heather McArthur.
Levin has been on bail since July 2013 when the then 61-year-old University of Toronto professor was charged.
He is alleged to have authored graphic child porn and counselled someone online on how to commit a sexual assault on a child.
Levin has lectured around the world and has been an advisor to several high-ranking Liberals. (more...)
