About the episode

Yarra Mayor Stephen Jolly is contesting assault charges stemming from an alleged incident at a Fitzroy venue two years ago, where police allege he assaulted a protester during a scuffle at his election celebration. During a media interview outside court, Jolly denied the assault allegations but appeared to acknowledge past drug use and inappropriate comments from earlier in his life. The matter will be contested at the Magistrates' Court.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
