Lawyers for Alex Jones miss another deadline to turn over Infowars financial data

ed note–not as much an exercise in ‘we told ya so’ as much as it is one of ‘we are telling you so’.

That the entire ‘hoax’ narcotic related to Sandy Hook was a psyop conjured up by the same ‘Deep State’ players against whom Jones and the rest of the ‘MOOOOOOOOOOOOOvement’ claim to be fighting was–at least to those who refused to drink the kool-aid at the time–as obvious as a heart attack the moment it first reared its ugly hydra head. Its initial aim was to thoroughly discredit all those who advocate and advance ‘alternative’ perspectives concerning the very serious political events taking place today and then, after having achieved this, to bankrupt the biggest names in the alternative media through the process of expensive litigation arising out the harm they caused through their irresponsible and libelous statements.

And the reason it is more an exercise of ‘we are telling ya so’ rather than one of ‘we told ya so’ is because–as evidenced with what is taking place at this very moment vis the massacre in New Zealand–the ‘MOOOOOOOOOOOOvemnt’ has not yet learned its lesson from all of this, in that the very same characters who did irreparable damage to the credibility of the alternative media with their Sandy Hook Hoax BS are now applying the same methods and madness to the events in Christchurch, claiming ‘crisis actors’, ‘fake blood’, disappearing shell casings and more and in the process of doing this, driving YET ANOTHER nail into the coffin of what began as the 9/11 Truth Movement.

It bears repeating again, despite the fact that many will undoubtedly not like it–As much as no one ever accused the Jews of being stupid, at the same time, no one ever accused the Gentiles of being smart.

Lawyers for Alex Jones have again missed a deadline to produce financial documents to the families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims who are suing him for calling the 2012 massacre a hoax on his Infowars website and internet radio show.

Rather than grant the motion filed by Jones’ new attorney, Norm Pattis, for another extension until April 3, Judge Barbara Bellis has called for a hearing Friday after lawyers for the family filed a six-page motion objecting to another extension and arguing that Jones has deliberately ignored a series of deadlines and should not have the opportunity to drag the proceedings out.

Pattis became Jones’ attorney on March 1 and in his motion to extend the deadline said he has yet to receive any documents to review from Jones’ previous attorney here in Connecticut or from his lawyers in a similar Texas case where the documents already have been turned over.

“That the Jones defendants have not provided their counsel documents to be reviewed means they have made no effort to produce by March 20. The extension to March 20, moreover, was for the Jones defendants’ new counsel to get up to speed — not for the Jones defendants to identify and review responsive documents,” attorney Alinor C. Sterling of Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder wrote.

“The Jones defendants, after all, had represented that they had substantial compliance ready to produce on February 25. It consequently appears that during the time between February 25 and March 20, the Jones defendants have simply withheld production.”

Bellis has already ruled that not only must Jones turn over the financial documents related to Infowars but she also has authorized depositions of Jones and three other defendants for a total of 19 hours. Bellis ruled the families are “entitled to conduct discovery likely to lead to admissible evidence for the purposes of opposing the motions to dismiss.”

She had already expressed disappointment that documents haven’t been turned over and has threatened to take the unusual step of penalizing Jones and his co-defendants by not allowing their motion to dismiss the case to go forward.

“I’m not a big fan of wasting everybody’s time and, you know, entering new court orders on deadlines that, you know, weren’t responded to in the first place,” Bellis said before granting the last extension.

“I urge the defendants to honor this court-ordered deadline because the defendants are the ones that want their motion to dismiss adjudicated, but if they’re going to continue to ignore court deadlines they’re going to lose the ability, quite frankly, to pursue their motion to dismiss.”

The plaintiffs include the parents of four children killed at the Newtown school: Jacqueline and Mark Barden, parents of Daniel; Nicole and Ian Hockley, parents of Dylan; Francine and David Wheeler, parents of Ben; and Jennifer Hensel and Jeremy Richman, parents of Avielle Richman. Other plaintiffs are relatives of slain first-grade teacher Victoria Leigh Soto; Erica Lafferty-Garbatini, daughter of slain Principal Dawn Hochsprung; and William Aldenberg, a longtime FBI agent and a first responder.

The lawsuit alleges a yearslong campaign of “abusive and outrageous false statements in which Jones and the other defendants have developed, amplified and perpetuated claims that the Sandy Hook massacre was staged and that the 26 families who lost loved ones are paid actors who faked their relatives’ deaths.” The lawsuit also accuses Jones of orchestrating a sustained attack that lasted for years, accusing family members of being actors, stating as fact that the shooting was a hoax and inciting others to act on those lies.

The families claim Jones knew the claims were false but that he kept perpetuating them because it was good for his ratings, drew advertisers and made him money.

A previous attorney for Jones, Jay W. Wolman, had already filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, claiming Jones is protected under the First Amendment. In court filings, he has compared Jones to the likes of Watergate journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. Bellis hasn’t addressed that motion yet.

Two other Sandy Hook families filed lawsuits in Texas, where Jones’ Infowars is based, last April. Neil Heslin, father of slain student Jesse Lewis, and Leonard Pozner and Veronique De La Rosa, whose son, Noah Pozner died in the massacre, filed separate lawsuits in Travis County, Texas, using basically the same arguments. A judge in Texas already has denied a motion by Jones to dismiss those lawsuits and has ordered that he must be deposed, although that hasn’t taken place yet.
