Alex Jones found liable in two Sandy Hook cases

A judge issued default judgments Monday against Jones and his right-wing website Infowars for failing to comply with orders to provide information for the lawsuits brought by parents of two children killed in the shooting, according to CNN. The rulings effectively mean that Jones lost the cases by default, CNN noted. A jury will decide how much he will owe the plaintiffs.

Mark Bankston, an attorney for the parents, told CNN that the rulings will provide his clients with “the closure they deserve.”

“Mr. Jones was given ample opportunity to take these lawsuits seriously and obey the rule of law,” Bankston told the news outlet. “He chose not to do so, and now he will face the consequences for that decision.”
