Reaction continues to flow in following the verdict in the robocalls trial.
On Thursday, a judge in Guelph found Conservative party staffer Michael Sona guilty of trying to prevent voters from marking their ballots during the 2011 federal election.
The judge also suggested that although Sona was the only one charged in the case, others had to be involved as well.
Federal Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau says that revelation is cause for concern.
“There are an awful lot of questions to be answered about who, and how much of a coordinated approach [this was] by the Conservative party,” Trudeau said.
A sentencing hearing is slated for October 17th.
Sona could go to jail for five years.
