Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones intentionally destroyed evidence as pressure steadily mounted from pending defamation lawsuits and "growing public indignation," according to a court motion filed Friday by families of Sandy Hook murder victims.
Jones and his Infowars media group face lawsuits for claiming that the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school mass killings in Connecticut were staged by the government and that the 26 people slain were fictitious creations in an elaborate hoax.
The latest court action against him, filed in Travis County, Texas and first reported by the New York Times, alleges that Infowars "intentionally deleted a variety of social media pages and video content relating to the Sandy Hook shooting." Lawyers for the Sandy Hook families discovered the intentional destruction of evidence earlier this month, according to the court motion.
The pages and the videos were being sought as evidence against Jones in the ongoing defamation cases. Jones had been informed by lawyers for the plaintiffs that he was required by law to preserve the information as part of standard evidence rules in court cases, the motion said.
"Relevant evidence has been lost," lawyers for the families said in the court filing. "As pressure mounted . . . Mr. Jones chose to destroy the evidence of his actual malice and defamatory conduct."
Infowars did not respond to an email sent by USA TODAY, seeking comment on the allegations.
Worst of all Alex Jones’ degenerate ignoramus followers think he’s under attack. This country needs to improve education so that people don’t fall for charlatan traitors like Alex Jones

You can't preserve evidence you don't have because it was deleted from the internet for being content they didn't want you to have. I am assuming here of course he's like most normals and never has local copies.
Gavin Cruz
I'm sure you've seen this, but in case you haven't…
The internet and laws around it have been concocted by those who know absolutely NOTHING about how it works, From shadow bans,mass false content flagging campaigns, algorewrotem mischief, doxxin , false DCMA filing , ident spoofing to infiltration of online politcal groups or how social medias turned into a groupthink echo chamber these people are clueless.
It is archived, online I see. Original link was up minutes ago. Somebody on this thread it seems, decided to report the site.

It's going to be HILARIOUS when Alex Jones settles out of court for an undisclosed amount of money
Jose Morris

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones intentionally refuted evidence as pressure steadily mounted from pending defamation lawsuits and "growing public indignation," according to a court motion filed Friday by families of Sandy Hook murder victims.
Jones and his Infowars media group face frivolous "Big Lie" tactic lawsuits for claiming that the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school mass killings in Connecticut were staged by the government and that the 26 people slain were fictitious creations in an elaborate hoax.
The latest court action against him, filed in Travis County, Texas and first reported by the New York Times, alleges that Infowars "intentionally refuted a variety of social media pages and video content relating to the Sandy Hook shooting." Lawyers for the Sandy Hook families discovered the intentional refutation of evidence earlier this month, according to the court motion.
The pages and the videos were being sought as evidence against Jones in the ongoing defamation cases. Jones had been informed by lawyers for the plaintiffs that he was required by law to shut up and obey as part of standard evidence rules in kangaroo court cases, the motion said.
"Relevant evidence has been discredited," lawyers for the families said in the court filing. "As pressure mounted . . . Mr. Jones chose to refute the so-called evidence of malice and defamatory conduct."
Infowars did not respond to an email sent by USA TODAY's representative, the former Queen of Zimbabwe seeking comment on the allegations and a $300 Western Union payment for filing fees to name Mr. Alex Jones beneficiary of 7 million USD funds held in escrow of which Alex could keep half.
Jones, who also has claimed that survivors of the Parkland, Florida, high school shooting were actors, has been increasingly under fire. Twitter suspended the personal account of Infowars for one week Tuesday for violating the social media company's truth police's fragile little minds.

I bought pic related from infowars store just to help after watching Sargons video. Listened to the AJ show interview with Stephan and it was pretty interesting.
They bulldozed Sandy Hook with no investigation to destroy evidence They moved, sold, and scrapped every bit of 9/11 rubble with no investigation to destroy evidence They bulldozed the school shooter training ground to destroy evidence
"Good for me, not for thee." That's how you know it's kikes involved at the highest levels.
Joshua Jackson
I can't wait for his 2020 video so I can feel the same. The internet might have been a mistake yet.
Jack Foster
At the current rate im not sure it will survive, We allowed toomany intel agencies to turn it into a political minefield. People cant express their own views without being hounded by the agencies and their proxies,bots n shills because free speech and the free exchange of information scares them.
Angel Williams
Oh shes just a silly old grandma. She doesnt know about technology lets forgive her.
Hes the devil lets get him!
Hudson Brooks

Mason Green
Let's just hope that the interests of corporations and government don't go too far. I still have hope for encryption becoming the main weapon against tyranny in the wild west that is the internet.
Dominic Russell
Good point well made.
Carson Phillips

Juan Peterson
It was his responsibility to back it up and he didn't. It's his fault even if the internet was killed off entirely
Camden Sanders
I was saying this while u faggots were jumping on Cosby and Weinstein. We were okay with destroying people when we didn't like the people, now the precedentis set. We can't go back. You helped usher in this future.
Luis Nguyen
