Attorneys representing Infowars host Alex Jones in a lawsuit filed by some Sandy Hook families are asking to be withdrawn from the case.

A former Hamden police officer who shot at an unarmed Black man and woman in 2019 — wounding the woman — won’t serve time in prison.

Constance Baker Motley was a trailblazing attorney and judge who helped shape the Civil Rights movement. But her story has not been celebrated like others. This hour on Disrupted, the life and legacy of the first Black woman appointed to a US federal court.

Attorneys for Alex Jones say he’ll sit for a deposition in April 2022. The jury still needs to determine how much Jones owes in damages.

A judge said Jones will be fined at least $25,000 for each day he does not appear for a deposition.

On Tuesday, InfoWars host Alex Jones offered to settle a lawsuit brought by 13 loved ones of victims killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. But the families rejected the proposed $120,000 each within hours of the “offer of compromise” being filed.

Attorneys for families of victims killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting couldn’t question InfoWars host Alex Jones under oath last week since he didn’t show up. So they’re asking a judge to arrest Jones to coerce his testimony. Jones’ attorneys say the judge should ignore that request because he’s not trying to escape the deposition.

The conspiracy theorist being sued for defamation by families of victims killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting will be deposed in two weeks. An affidavit published Tuesday revealed what the plaintiffs want the defense to produce ahead of the deposition.

Attorney Jay Marshall Wolman represents the InfoWars host in a lawsuit filed by families of victims killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. Wolman was formally reprimanded Friday by the judge presiding over the case.

In order to receive settlement funds, towns and cities need to officially sign on to the $26 billion deal by Jan. 2. Local officials have been working to persuade 12 Connecticut municipalities that have yet to do so.
