NSW Police have arrested veteran broadcaster Alan Jones following an investigation into alleged indecent assault and sexual touching offences spanning two decades.
In a statement NSW Police said Child Abuse Squad detectives executed a warrant at the 83-year-old's luxury Sydney apartment at Circular Quay about 7:45am.
The State Crime Command's Child Abuse Squad established Strike Force Bonnefin in March to investigate a number of alleged indecent assaults and sexual touching incidents between 2001 and 2019.
A search warrant is continuing.
NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb said the arrest followed a "very complex" investigation.
"This is a result of a very long, thorough and protracted investigation," she said at a press conference between Sydney and Wollongong.
Interesting how those who cry loudest often have something to hide.
Who is Alan Jones? Where did he work?
In a way it could be said he was Australia's leading right wing talk back radio broadcaster.( Based in Sydney, but broadcasting to many areas)
He had the largest radio audience in Australia and exposed many bad things the Deep State were attempting.
A bit like Rush Limbaugh.
He has a potentially checkered past. He is a homosexual, and for many years allegations have been made about his behaviour.
Since the 1970's he has been a thorn in the Deep State's side and many attempts have been made to discredit him.
He was taken off radio in early 2020, when he was saying the pandemic was a scam and had a sinister agenda behind it.
After he left radio he increased his presence on cable TV on Sky News Australia, until he was removed from there in the later part of 2020.
I'm not saying he is guilty or innocent.
What I'm saying is the Deep State have been out to silence him for a very long time.
Has he been controlled oppersition and now it's time to use him as a distraction for something else?
thanks, I appreciate this info. If the Deep State is trying to destroy him, it is clear he is their enemy and they are doing the exact same things to him they have done to all the other good guys. I agree, with you that guilt is not our's to find - there's a right place for that - and it's not in the media.
poor guy. guilty or innocent, it's a shame to be tried in the media
Perhaps a frame?
Long time radio broadcaster. Although comments are flying on FB on Aussie pages. I have to agree with one .... "Funny how they only do this once they're old". Are we seeing good or is this just a throw under the bus? It's been occurring for decades. One commenter said he was banned from football change rooms as too many got the creeps.
The Jimmy Saville treatment.
