Testimony Highlights
On September 24, 2026, David Allan, who served as Alan Jones’s butler for nearly two decades, gave evidence at the Local Court, Downing Centre, Sydney. Allan described his daily duties—cooking meals, ironing underwear, polishing shoes, and delivering weekly flowers to a former athlete identified in the trial as complainant “M.” Allan affirmed he never observed any inappropriate conduct by Jones toward “M,” another complainant “C,” or other visitors, and he could not recall seeing the alleged genital contact described by the complainants.
