A former sports star denied in a Sydney court that he fabricated indecent assault allegations against broadcaster Alan Jones after falling on hard times, as defence counsel questioned inconsistencies and potential financial motives.
A complainant in the Alan Jones indecent assault trial told a Sydney court he reported the alleged abuse to teach his child right from wrong. Jones has pleaded not guilty to 22 charges.
A former schoolboy athlete, Complainant J, testified in the Alan Jones trial, alleging the broadcaster kissed him and touched his genitalia as a teenager. J stated he feared losing Jones's financial support, which included money, a car, and a phone, if he reported the alleged indecent assaults. Jones denies all wrongdoing.
A champion athlete, now testifying in a Sydney court, alleges Alan Jones, 85, befriended him at 14, provided financial support, and committed indecent acts including kissing without consent.
