A former coach with a judo club in the province has pleaded guilty to a pair of charges relating to child porn.

Dan McLaughlin, communications counsel for the B.C. Prosecution Service, said Bryan Jeffery McLachlan entered guilty pleas to one count of possession of child pornography and one count of distribution of child pornography in a Vernon courtroom on Wednesday (June 26).

The matter has been adjourned to allow for the preparation of a pre-sentence report.

McLachlan's next appearance will be on Sep. 4.
