Former 2GB broadcaster Alan Jones’ trial has heard evidence from Kate McClymont, the chief investigative reporter at The Sydney Morning Herald, at Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court.
McClymont was called by the Crown after investigating allegations against Jones, work which led to a series of reports. She is understood to have spoken to three of the five men whose evidence has been heard during the proceedings.
Jones, 85, is facing 19 counts of indecent assault and two counts of sexual touching without consent involving five male complainants between 2003 and 2020.
He has pleaded not guilty and denies that the alleged physical acts occurred. All five complainants have now given evidence in the trial.
McClymont arrived at court alongside Herald editor Jordan Baker and deputy editor Nick Ralston.
Support is available from the National Sexual Assault, Domestic Family Violence Counselling Service on 1800RESPECT, or the Men’s Referral Service on 1300 766 491.
