A Burton man scheduled to enter pleas this week on outstanding child-pornography charges is now in custody on new allegations, alleging he tried to meet a minor to engage in sexual activity.

Brady Matthew Worden, 30, of Route 102, was scheduled to appear in Fredericton provincial court Tuesday to enter pleas on charges of possessing child pornography in Fredericton and breaching a court-order prohibiting him from accessing the internet between June 24 and Sept. 24, and transmitting child porn Sept. 6.

However, when Judge Pierre Gionet called his case Tuesday, he wasn’t present.

That’s because he was in custody after being arrested last week and charged on the weekend with new counts.
