Alex Jones on Friday lost his bid to shield internal Infowars records sought by lawyers suing him on behalf of the families of several victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in Newtown, Connecticut.
Ruling from Connecticut State Superior Court, Judge Barbara Bellis granted requests for business documents desired by attorneys suing the Texas-based media personality and Infowars publisher for defamation.
From the beginning, we have alleged that Alex Jones and his financial network trafficked in lies and hate in order to profit from the grief of Sandy Hook families. That is what we intend to prove, and todays ruling advances that effort, said Chris Mattei, an attorney representing plaintiffs in the lawsuit.
We look forward to gaining access to Infowars internal marketing and financial documents to show that Jones has built an empire as nothing more than a conspiracy profiteer, as alleged in our complaint, Mr. Mattei said in a statement.
Jay M. Wolman, an attorney representing Mr. Jones in the case, did not immediately return a message seeking comment.
Lawyers representing the families of several victims of the Sandy Hook filed the civil suit in May 2018, seeking damages over what they called a years-long campaign of abusive and outrageous false statements.
Even though overwhelming and indisputable evidence exists showing exactly what happened at Sandy Hook Elementary School on Dec. 14, 2012, certain individuals have persistently perpetuated a monstrous, unspeakable lie: that the Sandy Hook shooting was staged, and that the families who lost loved ones that day are actors who faked their relatives deaths, attorneys for the plaintiffs alleged previously.
Authorities determined Adam Lanza, a 20-year-old former Sandy Hook student, fatally shot his mother at their Newtown home prior to

Did any D mention an Angel Mom by name, call her a crisis actor, and say that her child didn't die? Then she would have a good lawsuit.
“The increase in mass shootings mirrors the increase in psych meds given to boys for a fake disorder called ADHD.”
I wonder how many of the shooters were on those drugs. And if the drugs are causing it, why aren’t there *more* shooters?
“Such BS. He is being sued over hurt feelings. None of those people suffered any damages whatsoever.”
Jones is scum, but it is hard to know what damages were incurred.
But all that will matter is a jury’s sympathy.
Exactly. So anyone that has ever declared something to be “an inside job” better pony up.
All of them were on them.
“Did any D mention an Angel Mom by name,”
What Sandy Hook mom did Jones mention by name?
I agree, there’s no way Paddock did what they say he did.
In other words you don’t know your a$$ from a hole in the ground, you just parrot whatever the fakestream presstitutes tell you to think about him.
Funny you should mention that...
Alex Jones, himself, posted many of his programs on YouTube, so everyone could hear what he had to say.
Most of those are gone now.
Guess who removed them? Hint: It wasn't Alex Jones.
Headline: Top technology companies erased most of the posts and videos on their services from Alex Jones

“All of them were on them.”
All of them. Each and every school shooter was on ADHD meds?
Yep.
Seems like that would be a big story.
I am so not familiar with Alex Jones and what he said about sandy hook. But I know he encouraged the rumors that it never happened. People lost their precious babies. To call them all liars is worse than saying on the air I hate [name some nationality, plural].
That was my point. Its a form of hate speech to call these families liars.
“I am so not familiar with Alex Jones and what he said about sandy hook. ... That was my point. Its a form of hate speech to call these families liars.”
In other words you don’t know what the hell you’re talking about.
It was.
“It was.”
I don’t watch the evilsteam misleadia, and I do have a failing remembery, but I don’t recall it being a big story.
Correct.
Sandy Hook truthers are the scum of the scum when it comes to Internet nonsense based conspiracy theories. That's why their garbage is banned at FR.
That’s a shame.
