Lawyers for relatives of some victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting allege that far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones sent them documents relating to the court battle they are fighting that included electronic files containing images of child sexual abuse, as the latest twist in the defamation case against the Infowars website host.


I tried finding this as a topic on here, sorry if I missed it and it already is.

mod edit: adding another article for extra information


BRIDGEPORT - Conspiracy theorist and InfoWars host Alex Jones sent child pornography to the lawyers for the families of the Sandy Hook tragedy, their lawyers said.

The law firm representing the families of the 2012 mass shooting, stated in court documents filed Monday they have contacted the FBI after discovering child porn in electronic files Jones recently turned over to the Sandy Hook families as a result of their lawsuit against him for calling the tragedy a hoax.

A hearing has been scheduled before Superior Court Judge Barbara Bellis on Tuesday.

Jones' lawyers had previously been ordered by Judge to turn over vast amounts of electronically stored data on Jones' business operations.

Court documents stated that the Sandy Hook lawyers had begun reviewing the electronic files that Jones had turned over when they found child pornography in the files. They immediately contacted the FBI.

"The FBI advised counsel that its review located numerous additional illegal images, which had apparently been sent to InfoWars email addresses," they stated.

My understanding is he turned over all emails and in that database were emails that had been sent to infowars containing child pornography.

It's amazing how those who project such things onto others are in time caught for said crime.

Maybe now he can finally be put in jail for his shit.

"You put the porn on your server, Alex."

I'll take that 1 million dollar bounty in cash, please.

So he tried to set up the parents with child porn and wound up getting caught with it on his own computers.

Am I inferring that properly?

Oh fuck. That's huge. I really fucking hope this is a rock solid, bullet proof accusation.

If one single detail about this ends up being false the "MSM lies to eliminate political opposition" propaganda machine will spin up very hard for a very long time.

I don't think the OP is capturing the story here well.

During the lawsuit between the parents and infowars/Alex Jones, the parents' lawyers requested emails from infowars during discovery. Infowars just dumped the entire contents of the email server to them and when the parents lawyers reviewed it for evidence relevant to the case, they discovered child porn that had been sent to infowars. The parents' lawyers sent the information to the FBI and they are investigating.

This likely ends with whoever sent the images to infowars being prosecuted.

Ok reading an article I am now very confused.

One says Jones sent the pcitures, but another is saying the pictures were sent to Jones by trolls.

""The FBI advised counsel that its review located numerous additional illegal images, which had apparently been sent to InfoWars email addresses," they stated. "

Not sure whats going on now. What a mess.

My understanding is that trolls sent infowars a bunch of emails with the child porn in it. According to infowars, they get tons of emails and didn't notice/open the stuff. Around the same time, the sandy hook plaintiffs requested infowars emails for discovery, and the lawyer noticed the child porn and contacted the fbi.

But I dunno either. It's confusing but it's hard to beleive Jones because he's a conspiracy theory pos. I guess we wait to see what the fbi says. Either way, fuck Alex and I hope he ends up in the gutter.

What attorney agreed to turn over the entire email server as part of discovery?!

Ok this is a bit more rational. It makes no sense whatsoever that someone in the spotlight would just purposefully mass-send people kiddy porn.

Yeah, Alex Jones is a piece of shit guys but at the moment, it doesn't seem like he actually sent CP to anyone, merely recieved it from trolls on the internet.

I mean the outcome of all this is Jones is probably going to harass some more people and build up his charges.

Eh I don't completely buy this explanation of Alex Jones being the innocent savage. He runs a multi-million dollar business and he doesn't have guys looking at his e-mails for him? Yeah right.

Every news organization has guys that check e-mail accounts for relevant information. Why would these just happen to slip through everyone's noses? Most of the time this would get reported instantly from whatever organization is receiving them, but nope didn't happen with Infowars.
