Episode Details

A major courtroom drama is unfolding in Sydney as veteran broadcaster Alan Jones faces 22 charges of indecent assault and sexual touching without consent, spanning from 2003 to 2020 and involving six men. Jones has pleaded not guilty to all counts. A key moment came this week when one accuser — a prominent athlete — testified in person, confronting Jones directly. The athlete alleges unwanted kisses and physical contact at events and in Jones’ apartment, describing being unable to move during one incident before pushing him away and leaving. He also claims the encounter was followed by inappropriate text messages. This marks the third alleged victim to testify, following two others who gave remote statements. The court is currently in closed session as the athlete’s testimony unfolds, with media listening from a separate room. Jones continues to deny all allegations, insisting the incidents never occurred.
