‘Anti-Jones crusade’: Alan Jones’ lawyers probe contact between police and journalists

Alan Jones has been charged with an additional count of assault with an act of indecency, totaling 35 charges against him related to 11 alleged victims.
Jones has pleaded not guilty to the charges, which include allegations of sexual touching and indecent assault occurring between 2001 and 2019.
His lawyer, Bryan Wrench, raised concerns about a potential 'anti-Jones crusade,' citing investigative journalist Kate McClymont's ongoing articles about the case.
The court has adjourned the case until May 13 for further evidence service, and a trial is unlikely before 2026.
