SYRACUSE, N.Y. — A former teacher’s aide at a Syracuse elementary school is expected to plead guilty next week in connection with a child pornography case.

Emily Oberst, 24, is scheduled for a “change of plea” hearing Wednesday before U.S. District Judge Glenn Suddaby at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, according to court records. The records don’t say what charge she’s expected to plead guilty to.

Oberst was indicted last year along with Jason Kopp of sexually exploiting children for the purpose of making child pornography and distributing child porn.

Her lawyer, Kim Zimmer, would not comment on the expected guilty plea. Assistant U.S. Attorney Lisa Fletcher also wouldn’t comment.
