The court heard Chow befriended the boy on a gay website and they later entered a sexual relationship. The crime came to light when the boy's mother talked to him about his deteriorating performance at school. The parents reported the matter to police. Chow was remanded in custody pending sentencing on July 16. A judge ordered a psychological report on Chow to assess his likelihood of reoffending and whether he was a paedophile.
