Flirty Texts and Alleged Assault | Australia News

A man accusing Alan Jones of multiple counts of indecent assault is testifying in court, admitting he sent “flirty” texts to Jones over years — including messages about penis size and attractiveness — claiming they were a desperate attempt to maintain a professional relationship with one of Australia’s most powerful men. He says these texts were his way of “diffusing” the situation and “currying favor,” even though he alleges Jones touched him without consent. The defense challenges the consistency of such behavior with someone who claims to have been assaulted, but the complainant insists it was part of navigating an unequal power dynamic. He also revealed he confided in Ray Hadley back in 2019, breaking down in tears. The trial continues. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
