A judge has chosen to throw out one suspect's guilty plea in a child porn case linked with an elementary school in Syracuse.

Jason Kopp was in court Monday and was expected to admit guilt to his role in the sexual exploitation case.

Defense attorneys say Kopp would not admit to the actions of the second suspect in the case -- Emily Oberst. The deal would have made Kopp admit that Oberst sent him illicit photos without a reduction of charges.

The plea was rejected by the judge and both sides will return to court next week.

Both Kopp and Oberst are charged with conspiracy and sexual exploitation for their actions involving an infant.

Oberst worked at All Saints Elementary School on Tipp Hill.
