(KNZA)--A jury trial has been scheduled in Jackson County for a Topeka man accused of sex crimes involving a child.

Fifty-eight-year-old Teddy Moore pleaded not guilty last month to two counts of rape and two counts of aggravated criminal sodomy after waiving his preliminary hearing.

Court records show a four-day jury trial is now set to begin September 29th in Jackson County District Court.

Moore was arrested in March on a Jackson County warrant following an investigation that began in July 2025 by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department.

Authorities say the alleged offenses involve a child under the age of 14 and are reported to have occurred in January 2018.

Moore remains in the Jackson County Jail on a one-million-dollar bond.
