Sentencing delayed for Lismore child groomer Christopher Frangos

·

Sentencing for former Lismore primary school teacher, Christopher Frangos, who used a carriage service for child grooming for intercourse, has been delayed.

According to The Daily Telegraph, this comes as his lawyer’s approach to the case has been accused of being “backward” and “inefficient.”

Frangos’ case was mentioned in Lismore District Court before Judge Jonathan Priestley on Tuesday, November 19.

The 36-year-old pleaded guilty to using a carriage service to groom a child under 16 years old for sexual intercourse in late August.

The additional charge of using a carriage service to send indecent material to a child under 16 was withdrawn.

Frangos remains on bail with a court hearing scheduled for April 7, 2025.
