Alan Jones Arrested

[Aristotle Pickett]

I don't think that's true.

In fact he only supported gay marriage in a 2012 interview and in 2016 Jones publicly stated he opposed the same sex marriage plebiscite because it could be “angry and spiteful and divisive” and "gay and lesbian Australians have suffered enough".

His opposition to the same sex marriage plebiscite was latched onto by church and conservative groups as behim being against gay marriage but that was a misrepresentation. He was against a costly, divisive and unnecessary plebiscite NOT the concept of same sex marriage.

His 2016 statement said "love was “an elusive thing”.

“If people find it they should be able to celebrate it. If that celebration manifests itself in same-sex marriage, then the world’s not going to fall in. I think people are tired of all this,”

But again, its his alleged criminality that's the issue in this thread and NOT his sexuality or his social opinions no matter how offensive of hypocritical they might seem.

The important point is that he is an alleged serial predatory pedophile that was protected by media and politicians and he has ruined many lives.

A ninth alleged victim has resulted in another batch of sexual assault charges.

'NSW Police confirmed on Tuesday the former Wallabies coach has been charged with an extra two counts of assault with act of indecency relating to ninth alleged victim.'

Given the large time frame of the alleged offending, would be surprised if the number of alleged victims doesn't at least double.

Worked in hospitality in Sydney in the early 90’s in places that Jones frequented. He occasionally seemed to take a fancy to some guys and could be a little creepy. He had a weird personality - quite intense and stern but then suddenly a bit fawning to guys he was interested in

If only Jones could be charged and punished for all the non-sexual abuse he perpetrated for decades.

One of my loved ones (a highly regarded at the top of their profession peer of Jones (age wise)) told me that they were abused by Jones during a radio interview, and I’ve never forgiven Jones for that.

Lucky for Jones that I never crossed his path around Circular Quay, or he might have copped a tongue lashing from me in retribution.

Lock him up.

If Alan Jones gets his way, he will be free and Sky News will praise him like George pell lol

 

[Freomaniac]

Sad that this is only coming to light now he's a nobody.

and 83 years old now he is.

I laughed upon seeing a quote of Bolt saying he'd never heard of such things about Jones. Yeah, so me and every other Australian with a vague knowledge of Jones has heard this stuff for 30-40 years but someone like Bolt hasn't... so sick of these people protecting predators and if anything it only seems more emboldened now.

protected while he was useful with his platform.

... a quote of Bolt saying he'd never heard of such things about Jones...

Seems legit!

And if all else fails, and he goes to jail, the High Court will eventually rescue him like they did for Pell

"Not enough evidence, unsafe conviction blah blah blah"

On SM-A225F using BigFooty.com mobile app

They didn’t rescue Pell. There was no evidence that warranted it even going to trial.
However, Jones has a lot more allegations to confront. Lets see where this goes.

Let’s not jeopardise the case of the alleged cretin.

His lawyer, who IRL many years ago I've had exchanges with that were pretty savage and only recently reconciled, has already complained typically making a lot of noise, that the judge or someone in the court referred to the "victim" but must use the term "alleged victim".

Yeh you don't want to mess with this one, he's a good lawyer, very well connected and he knows how to work the press. He's also very expensive and money won't be an issue.
