Former radio host Alan Jones is on trial for 21 charges, including 19 counts of indecent assault and two counts of sexual touching, related to alleged incidents between 2003 and 2020. Five male complainants have testified against Jones, who denies all allegations. The trial, which has been running for 13 weeks, is expected to continue until December. Several witnesses, including journalist Kate McClymont and police, are yet to give evidence. Jones, who has been sitting in the front row of the courtroom daily, is accused of inappropriate behavior at various locations, including his apartment, farm, workplace, and social functions. The court has heard from all five complainants, with one alleging multiple incidents of inappropriate touching and kissing by Jones.
