Alex Jones Guilty In Sandy Hook Defamation Suits

“A superior court in Connecticut granted a sweeping victory to the parents of eight people killed in a 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., suing the far-right broadcaster and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and his Infowars media outlet for defamation,” the New York Times reports.

“The judge in Connecticut ruled on Monday that because Mr. Jones refused to turn over documents ordered by the courts, including financial records, he was guilty by default.”

“Juries… will next decide how much Mr. Jones should pay the families in damages, atop court costs.”
