Alex Jones testifies in trial over his Sandy Hook hoax lies

WATERBURY, Conn. (AP) — Alex Jones took the stand Thursday at his Connecticut defamation trial, acknowledging he had promoted the conspiracy theory that the 2012 Sandy Hook massacre was a hoax, but angrily refusing to keep apologizing for that.

Still grifting. Let's hope there's some proper punitive damages that he's forced to actually pay.

He was asked about advertisements on that page and other Sandy Hook content, as well as daily profit reports. Jones said he could not answer thoses questions, but denied he saw the trial as a marketing opportunity.

Later, when asked about his fundraising and items offered in his Internet store, he made sure to give out the URL where people could buy cryptocurrency to support his company.

“That will end up as a clip on your show tonight,” Mattei said. “You’re advertising for your cryptocurrency page?”

Which would count as performance art, I’m sure, making the explosives tax-deductible.

Business expense.

“We should bow five times a day to New Haven, Connecticut for the kids that died,” Jones said, before saying that people have been hypnotized into believing that they should give their guns to George Soros, a Jewish billionaire that anti-Semites think controls left-wing politics.

“I was actually Hitler. It wasn’t actually Hitler,” Jones said. “I did it. I was in a time machine in Germany. I did all that.”

Is it safe to day that Jones has moved past Becontree and has thus far extended the district line approximately 73 miles east of Shoeburyness?

To be fair those bits about Hitler were meant to be sarcasm. But some of his other claims are just as mad. It doesn't in the least surprise me that someone can go that insane. What does surprise me a bit is that so many people would be hanging on his every word and sending him money.

I'm sure it will get lowered on appeal, but even so it has to be hurting by now.

Utter scum.

I think a lot on Jones's dosh is tied up in cryptocurrency, a quick search turn this up:

So, whilst it's great that he's been ordered to pay such a large sum, it may prove difficult to get at what money he has.

Appealing to his audience to send him donations Jones promised, “The money you donate does not go to these people [the victims]. It goes to fight this fraud and to stabilize the company [Infowars].”

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

He just needs a bullet in his head now. From his own hand or someone else’s, I don’t really care. He is a human beyond any sort of redemption or merit. The very definition of surplus to requirements.

I hope this cunt is buried up to his neck in lawsuits and trying to make ends meet until the end of his days - that's what 'taking personal responsibility' looks like.

Just his being buried up to his neck would suit most people
