Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones continues to deal with the consequences of calling the mass shooting of children a hoax.
Jones, the host of unhinged conspiracy outlet Infowars, was dealt another lawsuit on Wednesday after Scarlett Lewis, the parent of a child killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook shooting, decided to take action.
She is being represented by Mark Bankston of the law firm Farrar & Ball, who has levied several other lawsuits against Jones on behalf of the host’s targets. Lewis is suing Jones over what she calls the “intentional infliction of emotional distress” over the last five years.
The court filing obtained by HuffPost cites numerous instances in which Infowars attempted to mislead or outright lie to viewers about the mass killing of 20 small children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut in December 2012.
One 2013 video, “Why People Think Sandy Hook is a Hoax,” attempted to explain away the shooting, according to the suit. Other videos and articles cited in the lawsuit include “Shadow Govt Strikes Again” and “Adam Lanza Link To Psychotropic Drugs,” referring to the shooter.
The lies, which continued for years, caused multiple Sandy Hook families to become the targets of harassment by those following the conspiracies, the lawsuit says. Father Leonard Pozner, for instance, received threatening voicemails that eventually led to the arrest of 57-year-old Lucy Richards, who was banned from accessing Infowars as part of her sentence.
“Mr. Jones and InfoWars were well-aware of the unhinged community of ’Sandy Hook Investigators’ they had fostered,” the lawsuits says. “Mr. Jones knew that a large collection of Sandy Hook deniers were coordinating their harassment. Plaintiff and her family have suffered harassment and threats from this community.”
Lewis said she came forward with her lawsuit after learning her family had also been a target of Jones.
“After learning that my family was specifically targeted in Mr. Jones’ campaign of attacks, I have struggled with how best to address the profound distress he has inflicted,” Lewis said in a statement provided to HuffPost. “In the end, I have decided that I must join those who are standing up against Mr. Jones and his despicable actions. I simply cannot allow the threat to my family’s safety go unanswered.”
Those standing against Jones include Pozner and Neil Heslin, two Sandy Hook parents also suing Jones for defamation. Pozner’s suit survived a dismissal attempt in August.
Jones is also facing a defamation lawsuit against him brought by Marcel Fontaine. Infowars incorrectly identified Fontaine as the Parkland, Florida, shooter who killed 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Feb. 14. Bankston is representing Pozner, Heslin and Fontaine in all of those cases.
Six Sandy Hook families in Connecticut have also filed a separate defamation lawsuit against Jones. In their suit, the families, along with an FBI agent who responded to the shooting that day, listed numerous videos by Jones with titles including “Sandy Hook Shooting Exposed As A Fraud.”
Finally, Jones is facing a defamation lawsuit from Brennan Gilmore, who recorded the violent vehicular attack that killed 32-year-old Heather Heyer during last year’s “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia. Jones called Gilmore a “deep state shill” and a “CIA asset.” (He’s not.)

This is bullshit when one of the people trying to get the truth out is massacred why in the hell would you proclaim it to the world you ought to be ashamed of yourself!
ed note–and which ‘truth’ is it that Jones is trying to expose? That ‘no one died’ at Sandy Hook? This is total bullshit, admitted even by Jones himself who has now totally backtracked on his assertions now that he is facing multi-million dollar lawsuits and all of you who bought into this fell for one of the BIGGEST psyops that the enemy has thrown our way since 9/11.
You people f*****EVERYTHING with the nonsense and we are all going to pay a BIG price for your stupidity.
To prioritize the SH lie over the real False Flag of 9-11 simply stinks of jew direction. Alex Jones is just another of jewry’s butt-boys; another Shabbos Goy traitor who deserves a bullet to the head!
How absurd that this SH BS should distract from 9-11! It stinks to high Heaven, and anyone who’s jumped on that band wagon is a mental retard who deserves an ass-kicking! Stupid shits! Go jump off a 500 foot cliff with a sparkler hanging out your asses!
Wish I could says ‘3 cheers’ to the handful of people, including the late, great MCP and the editors at this website who gave ample warning that this was coming and who have now been proven right in their predictions, but the ugly truth of it all, no pun intended, as that there is no cause whatsoever for any kind of celebrating. This has been an unmitigated disaster for us all and what’s worse is that we should have seen it coming from a light year’s distance away.
it is one thing to express doubt due to some reported details that contradict the official version,
but quite a different thing to express certainty that it DID NOT happen, just based on something that might have got garbled in translation.
in fact, there may have been crisis actors on the scene in boston or sandy hook specifically in order to entrap careless publicity hounds like jones, despite the real tragedy that may or may not have taken place in the foreground – i am always gun shy when the answers to CUI BONO? are not obvious as was the case in sandy hook/boston marathon.
mossad has mastered the art of mounting its operations on half-baked false flags by less professional and determined actors like the western intels, after thoroughly infiltrating them and deflecting the course to aid their goals, such as the “cuban” scare act directed at jfk that mossad turned from fire drill into the real deal.
right now, already the unschooled sleuths are saying that the synagogue shooting never happened: Everything points to a synagogue massacre that DID NOT take place at Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life
well … maybe it did, maybe it did not, but why stake one’s credibility on something that needs a lot more investigating?
certainly, the Cui Bono is glaringly obvious, but the payoff is so great that mossad would gladly sacrifice a few jews for that bottom line.
and maybe that synagogue was leaning toward the libertarianism too much, the chief rabbi actually sounds fairly regular, which is a crime in judaism …
when i do get categorical, such as with holocaust or 9/11, it is because of the overwhelming evidence contrary to the sanctioned narrative (as well as the blindingly obvious cui bono).
it is quite possible that jews permitted alex jones to grow big enough to crash resoundingly when the sacrifice time arrived – he was harmless because he is too dumb to analyze all the angles in firefight. ed note–as usual Lobro, expertly said.
How–6 years after the fact–these people still cannot see how they are being played by the very same forces against whom they claim to be working is nothing less than a phenomenon all its own. And not merely with SH, but with all the other events–Boston Marathon, Las Vegas and now–the Sin-a-Gog massacre. It is like being in a psychology class and watching video of someone who is in the midst of an acid trip as they ramble a bunch of nonsense that resembles a psychotic episode.
But then, we should not be surprised. If we operate under the paradigm that Judaism and all its manifestations in Western society collectively act as a mind-altering intoxicant–which it is–then it makes perfect sense when a sizable portion of those who have been exposed to it simply lose their minds and begin speaking in tongues as if this were all some Pentecostal ‘revival’. It literally is like a scene from the Walking Dead series.
because of mossad’s infiltration and ability to piggyback their own operations onto staged training drills by the police, cia and fbi, i would be extra careful anytime such exercises are taking place and avoid these venues like plague.
