Trial Paused as Prosecution Revises Case | Australia News

The trial of Alan Jones hit a major snag as the prosecution suddenly pivots, shelving key witness testimony—including that of “J,” a former athlete who alleges years of unwanted advances—after the Director of Public Prosecutions announces a case amendment. J’s ex-girlfriend previously testified he confided in her about the alleged touching, even asking her not to report it. His mother and coach were also slated to testify today, but now the judge has excused Jones from court for the day. The next accuser, “C,” is expected to detail incidents involving kissing and unwanted genital contact during car rides and elevator encounters. Jones denies all charges, and the trial remains on hold pending the outcome of this legal maneuver. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
