  "account": "In the ongoing criminal trial of renowned broadcaster Alan Jones, a fourth male complainant, referred to as Complainant H, has testified that the 85-year-old radio host allegedly touched his bottom at an event. The complainant described feeling \"disgusting and powerless\" and stated he did not react physically to avoid causing a scene. He informed his boss about the incident shortly after leaving the event, and later told a colleague who supported him. Complainant H said the experience helped him understand the struggles women have faced for years. The incident occurred more than five years ago at an event where Jones was standing next to the complainant. Jones has pleaded not guilty to one count of sexual touching, and he faces 21 counts of indecent assault and sexual touching in total.",
