I predict that the juries will have about as much sympathy for Alex Jones as Jones did for the grieving Sandy Hook parents. Incidentally, who are the advertisers on Jones' Infowars show?
A Texas judge has found Infowars host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones liable for damages in three defamation lawsuits related to his claims that the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting was a hoax
The cases now head to trial for juries to determine the amount of damages Jones and the other defendants will have to pay the families.
The shooting at the Newtown, Connecticut, school on Dec. 14, 2012, killed 20 first-graders and six educators. The gunman, 20-year-old Adam Lanza, fatally shot his mother at their Newtown home before going to the school, and killed himself as police arrived.
The shooting was portrayed on Jones' Infowars show as a hoax involving actors aimed at increasing gun control. Jones has since acknowledged the school shooting did occur.
