Lawyer for Alan Jones makes shock claim in court
13 May 2025 A lawyer for embattled former radio giant Alan Jones has told a court some witness’s statements are “blatantly contradictory”.
The former 2GB host and Wallabies coach did not appear in person before the Downing Centre Local Court on Tuesday, after he was charged late last year to 35 separate charges, relating to allegations he indecently assaulted, groped, or inappropriately touched a number of young men.
He is yet to enter any formal pleas.
Bryan Wrench, solicitor for the 83-year-old, told the court since Mr Jones’s last occasion they have received a brief of evidence, and they are seeking an eight week extension in the “interest of justice”.
“There are a number of statements … we feel [are] blatantly contradictory to some of the allegations,” he said on Tuesday.
