The absence of evidence that should be present and the presence of evidence that should be absent are keys to unraveling Sandy Hook. And the suppression of the new documentary, âWe need to talk about Sandy Hookâ, appears to be backfiring. Proof of fraud and fakery continues to mount, substantiating it was a drill and no children died.
Alex Jones, host of a radio show and publisher of InfoWars, firmly believes that the December 14, 2012, shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School was not a hoax," the statement said according to The Courant. He also used Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein's using "Deep Throat" as a source in the Watergate reporting as a defense for Jones.
Jones' lawyer made the statement in a motion for a defamation lawsuit brought against the conspiracy theorist by Sandy Hook victims' families. According to Jones' attorney Jay M. Wolman, while Jones initially questioned its legitimacy, he does not believe that the shooting was a hoax.
A Connecticut judge has found Infowars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones liable for damages in lawsuits brought by parents of children killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting
The filing says that Jones referred to the shooting as "fake" or a "hoax" once in a December 2014 show. In 2015 on Infowars, Jones said that the shootings did not take place.
In 2018, a group of Sandy Hook parents first filed a lawsuit against Jones. Jones had claimed the shooting was staged and some of the grieving parents were actors. Despite first blaming his comments on "a form of psychosis," he later admitted that the tragedy happened. "I've had a chance to believe that children died and it's a tragedy," he said.
(Reuters) - Conspiracy promoter and right-wing media personality Alex Jones has been ordered to pay $100,000 in court costs and legal fees stemming from a lawsuit over his claims that the 2012 Sandy Hook massacre of school children was a hoax, court records show.
Jonesâ attorney, Wade Jefferies, said the lawsuit should be dismissed on freedom of speech grounds and said he would appeal the judgeâs decision not to dismiss it. He also said the legal payments ordered by the judge were excessive.
In response, several parents of the slain 6- and 7-year-old children sued Jones and Infowars for defamation and emotional distress in Texas, where Infowars is based, and in Connecticut.
The Daily Beast first reported the rulings on Monday. The judgeâs filings ordered Jones to pay more than $100,000 for failing to provide discovery, or evidence owed to the opposing side, and for filing a frivolous request to dismiss the case.
After conducting what he called âdeep research ,â Jones said in 2014 âthe whole thing was fake.â. However, in a deposition linked to one of the suits, Jones later conceded that âchildren died and itâs a tragedy,â while also denying he had wronged the parents of the slain children.
US radio host and prominent conspiracy theorist Alex Jones has lost another legal case after falsely calling a mass school shooting a "hoax".
Judge Maya Guerra Gamble wrote that Mr Jones and other defendants had shown "flagrant bad faith and callous disregard" by not turning over the files.
Alex Jones has been banned by Facebook, Twitter and YouTube for hate speech and abusive behaviour.
Mr Jones and an Infowars lawyer called the decision "stunning".

A Texas judge recently issued similar rulings against Jones in three defamation lawsuits brought by Sandy Hook families in that state, finding Jones liable for damages after defaulting him and his companies for not turning over documents. Hearings on damages also were ordered.
They sued Jones and his companies for defamation and infliction of emotional distress. The hearing on damages before a jury is expected to be held next year.
In one of the lawsuits, a Texas judge in 2019 ordered Jones to pay $100,000 in legal fees and refused to dismiss the suit. And a jury in Wisconsin awarded $450,000 to one of the parents in his lawsuit against conspiracy theorist writers, not including Jones, who claimed the massacre never happened.
Judge Barbara Bellis took the rare step of defaulting Jones in the defamation lawsuits for his and his companies' âfailure to produce critical material information that the plaintiffs needed to prove their claims.â The default means the judge found in favor of the parents and will hold a hearing on how much damages he should pay.
Lawyers for the parents claimed Jones and his companies, including Infowars and Free Speech Systems, violated court rules by fail ing to turn over documents to them, including internal company documents showing how, and if, Jones and Infowars profited from talking about the school shooting and other mass shootings.
Consider the DASHCAM footage of the Sandy Hook parking lot at the times and locations where, according to the official report by Danbury Stateâs Attorney, Stephen Sedensky, some 469 students (not to mention the 75 staff, teachers, custodians, administrators and such) should have been evacuated.
You might think that I have blundered by overlooking the âiconicâ photograph by Shannon Hicks, which appears to show fifteen children being led away from the school by a police woman. This image made its way around the world and was published on virtually every front page of every newspaper in print.
Those who have been following the case will appreciate how many times there is an absence of evidence that should be present (such as the missing oil stains in the Sandy Hook parking lot) and the presence of evidence that should be absent (such as the neon sign, âEveryone must check inâ ), which has intrigued students of Sandy Hook virtually from the beginning.
Rob Dew on Inforwars.com is joined by two of the filmmakers behind the video, âWe Need To Talk About Sandy Hookâ from the group, http://www.mediasolidarity.com, QK Ultra and Tyranny News, who talk about its viral success despite the ongoing, even fanatical, efforts to suppress it.
When Sandy Hook first occurred back in the end of 2012, many of us who had done the research then began to see the inexorably linked events such as were Tucson and Aurora and for that matter the LAX staged shooting, the Dorner hoax, and the Boston PsyOpera hoaxes run under Project Longevity by Eric Holder, who has stated publicly that the American people âmust be brainwashedâ about gun control.
