Alex Jones found liable over Sandy Hook hoax conspiracy

On what basis is that admissible?
Lack of remorse? I don’t know if there was an objection. His defense seems to be that he feels bad aNd learned from his mistakes. Treating the trial like a joke on his show would show otherwise.
 
MAGA, b**tches!

Child porn found in documents Alex Jones sent to lawyers of Sandy Hook families, court filing says

It's almost like the modern day GOP is rotten to it's core

What did his lawyers want his phone for, in the middle of trial after already blowing off discovery, though? Apparently they didn’t assert any privilege over it when notified of their mistake. That seems weird, but I don’t do enough civil litigation to really know.

Yeah, that part is strange.
 
No context, but here's something similar. Are they thinking they'll win on appeal?



Idk. The Judge’s decision to default him may cause problems on appeal, but I have no idea.

It seems like a case where they had no real defense and the client just kept kicking chairs out from under them.

Good summary.

The default judgement was entered because Jones refused to comply with discovery. Now that some of the evidence is being brought to light, it's increasingly obvious why Jones didn't want to turn it over.

Agree. There’s a spectrum of sanctions that she could have used.

Thinking about it a little more: Waiver of a constitutional right by bad faith action is not novel or unheard of. You have a right to bail in non-Capitol criminal cases in Tennessee but if you commit more crimes while out on bond you can be held without.

So I assume this comes down to some sort of abuse of discretion standard that may or may not have teeth. It’s probably not a good issue for them but it seems like maybe the best they have.
