Sandy Hook lawyers say Alex Jones’s attorneys accidentally gave them his phone contents - www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2022/08/03/alex-jones-sandy-hook-phone

@ for Sandy Hook

He's currently on trial for a defamation case parent's from Sandy Hook have brought against him.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

His ex-wife has also stated she's going after the data.

Edited to add her tweet:

[gretchenindisguise]

There is a clip of judge lecturing him about the truth that is amazing. "Just because you seem to think something is true doesn't make it true."

[Pom]

This really could not happen to a more horrible creep.

He has also been pissing off the judge in a manner that suggests he and his whole shit show are at peak FAFO.

[meganew]

Is there any chance that this was the kind of accident that’s accidentally on purpose? Like his lawyer was like “omg I hate you, you’re despicable, and I hope these parents get everything from you.” Because I can’t figure out how this happens by mistake.

This occurred to me too.

I don’t understand lawyer’s obligations, but you will never be able to convince me this was an accident lol.

I have seen intimations more that it could go towards some kind of an attempt at a mistrial.

I love this judge so much.

“You must tell the truth while you testify,” Judge Maya Guerra Gamble said. “This is not your show. 😂😂😂

I was thinking the same thing.

Jan 6th Committee plans to subpoena the messages. I believe I saw a something about DOJ as well.

But why? Jones and his lawyers were legally obligated to turn this material over and they didn’t until they accidentally forwarded everything to the families’ lawyers.

Jones perjured himself, not realizing they had the texts and emails, but these were things they were entitled to have.

ETA - Jones’s lawyer has repeatedly asked for a mistrial and the judge is not having any of this shit.

I haven’t followed this trial very closely but I’m also pretty sure not turning this over in discovery is a legal “mistake” that could have serious professional repercussions for the lawyer.

The families' attorney notified jones' attorney who had the opportunity to declare if any of the information was privileged.  Jones's attorney did not respond. Apparently, they had to give him 10 days to respond and he didn't so it was admissible today.

Omg. That is astounding. I wonder if someone is going to come for them for that level of incompetence. Hopefully it doesn’t cause the whole thing to overturn on appeal (is that a thing? No idea, I’m not a lawyer but it seems bad.)

[bernsteincat]

This was a pretty good thread of the absolute bananas shit that went on in the trial today.

Jones’s lawyer is a real class act.

Lawyer flips the bird at opposing counsel after judge leaves the bench in Infowars host Alex Jones' defamation case

[livinitup]

Alex Jones is so exhausting. I had a hard time READING the Twitter posts. Good god, being in his sphere must be torture.

I don’t usually have a lot of sympathy for prosecutors. I do for this trial!!

This is a civil trial. There are no prosecutors.

[campermom]

I just saw that the Jan 6 committee has subpoenaed this info!

Question: can incompetent council get a civil case dismissed? Is there a mistrial in civil cases?

For the first - no. Ineffective assistance of counsel is only a criminal thing and even then that would be the basis of appeal, not basis for a dismissal. In civil trials, the closest is probably malpractice, but that wouldn't be the basis for an appeal, that would be a separate lawsuit.

Second - mistrials are a thing in civil suits, similar to criminal.

[picksthemusic]

I saw a tweet yesterday to the effect that R pundits and politicians have been quiet since finding out that Jones' phone info was turned over. LOL No defense of him or his actions, nothing.

[calamity]

 He is such a piece of shit.  The amount of money he's made off of a complete lie.

[AJL]

I'm shocked that Alex Jones is only 48. He looks so old. Evil really does age you.

[starlily]

His attorney did request a mistrial this morning and the judge denied the motion. It was apparently the 17th motion for mistrial the defense attorney has made and the judge basically said she can't take him seriously anymore.

What!? He looks at least 60. He’s got classic alcoholic face.

[mcsangel2]

I was reading all the Twitter stuff yesterday. The likely ties to J6 people and that he has those texts are astounding.

Also supposedly his current lawyer is the ELEVENTH lawyer he's had. They keep firing him as a client. I like this way of dealing with his shit better, lol.
