Alex's lawyer makes me believe I can walk into a courtroom and be a lawyer without any schooling or training
Well a lawyer hasn't passes the bar exam ... just saying.
Yeah! Lol
LOLO. He is such a joke and disgrace to our law system.
@@codyramos3200 lolo
doing a comparison between American and Australian Law Degrees and Bar Exams ..... I must say, IN AMERICA YOU COULD 🤔😋 indeed, pro'se' is often the way many seem to go anyway
When he walked behind the flip chart and appeared on the other side, I expected him to have a sock puppet on his hand to make his next point.
🤣🤣 my favorite comment of the day - thank you
don't give him any ideas.
Hahah :)
Your comment have tears rolling down my face. Freaking HILARIOUS!
Mr. Socko
I can't believe I didn't go to law school because I was afraid I wasn't smart enough. Apparently any ding-a-ling can be a lawyer and pass the bar. This guy did it.
IKR??
He went to good schools and was a successful federal prosecutor before entering private practice, but he certainly doesn’t look too sharp here. It may have to do with being brought onto the case late, playing catch-up, and having a very difficult client that doesn’t like being told what to do.
David, I know several people who are currently attorneys who are DENSE. It is not a job that requires brilliance, just memorization and speaking skills.
@@professorvoluck9311 Good schools can mean that he just had family money to get him in there. Idk what his situation was, but you can't assume people are smart or competent based on their schools. And prosecutors are all generally successful because juries generally believe prosecutors and cops inherently.
absolutely!
Couldn't get through more than 8 minutes of his BS. No way I could listen for the full 58. I feel sorry for the jurors.
This was much easier to listen to than Elaine Bredehoft's closing mess
jurors should be paid top dollar! free beer, popcorn, and a table dance!
Same. I'm in the comments looking for a times tape of the poem. lol
Apparently, he used the "first they came for the socialist" poem.
Wanting to sway the court to stand up for jones in this case.
Wow. Way to play the victim... Just like the GQP that he is.
9 min 23 sec then i gave up
Main take from this: the jury was subjected to 51min of Alex Jones' incoherent rambling on day 1
This is what happens when you are such a despicable client, your choices of lawyers is severely limited.
better call Saul.
All the nasty things you have done I'm surprised you make a comment like that.
I like how he says Alex Jones isn't that big. Yeah, makes near 700,000.00 a day by being small time.
@@Zebra_3 Lol! I’ve been watching him in BB. Saul bugged his client, after laundering his money and the client’s wife was onto him. That’s about as far as I’ve got though.
What are you talking about, we are all entitled to decent representation.
That was the hokeyest closing argument I ever heard. What case was he talking about?
The case of no return.

Lol Jens
You only pay for what you need 🦤
@@jensandersen7011 Wasn't that case Kansas v Dust In The Wind?
Lawyer: We want smart people on the jury.
Alex Jones: Half these jurors don't know what planet they're on.
they are not on planet... see this is where alex comes off as a gate keeper
NOT A BALL!
@@michelleper5065 Go find a single seismologist who agrees with you. People like you are as much a danger as the woke idiots on the left.
I will say this, Some people Don't know what planet they are on. This is proven time and time again with the ignorance of the public. Indeed.
did AJ really say this in front of the jurors?
@@zackkazco2098 he said it in his show during the trial and it was played for the jury in the curt room
It is so funny to hear Alex Jones' lawyer insisting on ''evidence'' and ''facts'' when Alex Jones is sued and charged for ignoring them ''in the real world''.
This is now what happens when you make your opinion... Remember folks from this point on dont think or assume anything or you will be sued and lose everything...
@@JohnAdams-mu7xd HaHa, you exposed yourself in your comment..."when you make your opinion"... no you shouldn't make up your opinions mate. Sounds like you have an issue with the difference between right and wrong. Lying and using it to push your agenda is wrong and illegal.
@@blakekeane5507 thanks for your opinion now time for you to be sued into oblivian🤦♂️
Reynal practices law in the same way Infowars practices journalism.
It really is a perfect pairing.
Dirty water seeks it's own level.
Considering what the lawyer did with the SMS texts, the references to "Evidence" made me laugh waaaaayyyy too hard...!
All he left out of this was,
"If it doesn't fit, you must aquit" 😂😂😂😂😂
Of all my years of being in school and university have taught me anything, it’s the fact that the worst thing to say to any group of of people is “I made a PowerPoint…”
Yet you made a point within a sense of power ie telling the story of your schooling witch is not something everyone has , just to point out a power point to be told by some guy your basic oh making a PowerPoint of RUclips and say hi I like riddles :)
I don't think this guy was paying attention in school
You went to a university 😱😱 wow you must know everything, quit trying to brag about fake stuff on the internet loser
so funny!
You know what’s funny...people were knocking him for using a whiteboard earlier in the trial. Now he’s gettin shyt for going digital and using PowerPoint. Y’all are exhausting
"follow your oath" Just like Alex did when he lied under oath?
F. Andino Reynal, ESQ is the biggest buffoon I have ever seen in a courtroom and him defending Alex Jones is PERFECTION. Enter Karma stage left.
Of course his name is Andino 😂
*looks up "punchable face" in the dictionary*
Yep, checks out.
The cajones on Jones lawyer to say in his closing arguments that the jury has to make judgement "based on the evidence is and not on what you wish it was." Did he listen to his client on the stand?
Maybe it's me, but I don't think I saw any facts presented by Slick McSnazzypants. You know, the true kind.
@@spacenerd9499 I don't think it's you because I also haven't seen anyone named Slick McSnazzypants.
6:10 "Death and murder should be private events." i would concede on the point that mourning the death of a loved one should be private, but I'm sorry _murder_ ? Murder should be neither private, nor an event. Expose the perpetrator of that level of violence, reprimand them, punish them, make an example out of them so that others of a similar mindset consider and reconsider the consequences of carrying out such abhorrent actions. What a ludicrous statement!
depends on the country, technically it's not a ludicrous statement. if children in let's say, Finland, murder an adult, the court can indeed be in secret from the audience. depends on the circumstances the murder was made. a judge decides on that. different countries, different philosophies on secrecy.
some use it far more than others when things are related to children. naturally, it can be controversial and makes rumors abound.
@@Redmanticore did this occur in Finland? Then how is your comment relevant?
@@Redmanticore I wonder if the distinction you're making is in the relative age of the perpetrator.
If you're talking about juveniles committing crimes and the courts being closed to public scrutiny that's one thing. But in the case of Sandy Hook and Alex Jones, it's the victims that are children but the defendant is an adult.
It's proper that Alex Jones conduct be made public. It would have been proper for Alex Jones to consider allowing the parents of the murdered children to grieve privately.
Can you connect the dots between the Sandy Hook case and Finland?
I'm sure there are a lot of convicted killers who wish murder was a private event
It’s not that simple; that’s not what happens in the US. It’s inefficient and the killers don’t get held accountable
Jones' Lawyer put on a textbook display about how to lose a trial to maximum effect.
It was rigged from the beginning.
@@marvinburkholder8907 rigged?
@@MrJanes-cl5sj Yeah, Alex took a dive right away and is now claiming there is a conspiracy against him. Victim-theater.
From what I gather, there's really no trial to lose here. I think it's a question of to what extent the damages will be. The amount of money that is awarded to the Plaintiffs will probably be a better measure as to who won or lost.
@@JuicersSuck Yes, the judge took away his right to trial by jury by declaring him guilty. We're well into Soviet Union show trial at this point.
“$150m is a lot of money. It weighs the same as eight elephants! I asked my son!” Then there’s his lawyers sending two years of texts to the prosecution! Then there’s the lawyer turning to the parents and saying that he hopes they have the closure they need. Jones has the defence he deserves.
It’s setting up the dependent to claim ineffective representation…this is all grand standing they know he is going to get hit hard and so they are setting up for the next step
"Plaintiffs", not prosecution. This is civil, not criminal.
those parents should not get a dime!
maybe the state should give some of the tax money to them but not a single dime out of jones.
150 million is pocket change. At one point, he was making 300 million a year.
Murder should be a private event? Os he out of his mind?
I hope the jury awards these parents 10 Billion. Even that won't make that monster homeless, living under a bridge and begging for food.
9:35 Lawyer: “He trusted the wrong people” 😂😂😂
Poor vulnerable, impressionable, trusting Alex
@@jarlathmurphy5419 xD
:16 when will lawyers realize that pageantry and acting pompous does not get you very far in front of the jury? Also, don’t tell the jurors what their job is because again,you don’t need to tell the, their role or job- that’s the judge’s job which she did, so they don’t need you to repeat what the judge just told them to do as your closing arguments, it kinda runs thin and then to top it off, he says,”where is the evidence?” Acting like the other side did not show proper evidence which they obviously did during the trial. This layer has much to be desired. Reaching for straws here.
This lawyer is, at best, a terrible actor 🤣
He's just working with what he's got. Which is a terrible start.
@@AnalyticalReckoner 🤣🤣🤣
He has a nasty job to do and he has almost nothing to use in defense of Jones. Even whilst the trial was in session Jones' vitriol continued on infowars. Who really thinks he will stop peddling conspiracies as a gateway to selling his snake oils?
It's just sickening that people like Jone's even exist. Those poor parents.😞💙
Between the attorney accidentally sending those text messages to this poem...this almost seem like satire it is so ridiculous.
I can't listen to his whole speech... can you time stamp the poem please??
@@bradleyknopp7303 Starts about 56:54
The amount of proven lies that Alex Jones has stated during this trial should prove to everyone what a despicable person this man is!!!
You're so gullible. It's sad. I'm sorry you're like this.
the listeners in his cult don't care about reality, you should see the live chat
alex will appeal and win on the federal level i heard him say he will appeal for eternity lol. Sad to see him in court like this hes a true patriot trying to shed light on alot of corrupt things.
@@DAVIS__ He's not going to appeal for eternity. The law doesnt work that way.
@@DAVIS__ Sure he is, and sure he will, champ.
While he's at that, why not browse his online store again for some more masculinity-enhancing powders and shakes?
Those eternal appeals and patriotic truth-shedding operations are not going to fund themselves, you know.
Also, they really work, and he truly is a flawless hero just trying to do good and combat corruption and disinformation.
On a somewhat separate subject: I also happen to have a bridge I am willing to sell to you, at a very reasonable friend price, so be sure to get back to me.
His attorney is about as smart as his client - "not very"!
God it is so satisfying watching Alex and his defense squirm. Imagine having 4 years to submit evidence, refusing to do so, and going to court and pretending you did 😂😂
I actually believe the jury will see his side, we will see
@@peterenault4743 he has no side. These hearings were to determine the damages award. He may even get jail for perjury if there is any justice.
@@charleshebdo9764 Dog and Pony show. No evidence of defamation or perjury from what I saw, just a lot of unproven nasty allegations. I think there will be at least two jurors who will see thru this charade
So satisfying to know your parents are ashamed of you 🙈

>refusing to do so
>going to court
>closing argument citing anti-nazi poem
The Irony!! 😂😂
He is not being accused of being a natzi he's been accused of being a lier.
Huh? What does Nazi even have to do with anything what's the thought process to remotely make that distinction??....
And actually he's not being accused of being a liar per se thats not what the lawsuit is for its that he caused the defamation of the plaintiffs character along with causing people to harass and target them ... .. he's being accused of defamation
It's wonderful to see Law & Crime nerds and Alex Jones nerds interacting in the comments.
@j - k fair point
@j - k what a smug POS you are. I bet you're a hit at parties. Have fun licking the gnads of the msm. Even those with high intelligence who don't agree with recognize he's doing a great service for humanity.
@j - k that's Alex Jones FANS. Alex Jones NERDS are people who listen to the Podcasts Knowledge Fight and Opening Arguments and have been following this case through those guys coverage of it.
If they are unaware, Law and Crime nerds might ESPECIALLY be interested in the series of Knowledge Fight episodes where they directly cover the depositions related to both this case and the one in Connecticut. Most of those episodes are called "Formulaic Objections" (it can be useful to have a search term because KF has produced over 700 episodes covering Alex and occasionally the larger Infowars/conspiracy/right-wing grifter universe) and some of them feature the plaintiffs attorneys talking about their legal strategy during the depositions (one of the hosts of Knowledge Fight was engaged by the plaintiffs as an expert because he's likely watched more Alex Jones than anyone on the planet and he sat in on the Alex Jones deposition).
The episode where Daria, who was on the stand earlier in this trial, arrives at deposition as the officially designated corporate representative and one of the documents she brings is a print off of the Wikipedia page for "False Flag" is a particularly good moment
Enjoy it while it lasts.
@j - k Keep trying to minimalize us and you will be faced with the wrath of God...
Equating Alex Jones with victims of Nazi atrocities was worse than disgraceful. It's obscene.
True.
That's not what he equated. Congratulations, you missed the entire point he made.
He was equating the media and establishment witch hunt of Alex, to the third reichs persecution of anyone who dissented.
@@hankwest5662 Nazis spread conspiracy theories and lies just as Alex does. If Alex had lived then they could have used him for spreading their lies about Jews.
@@hankwest5662 I wasn't aware that Jones was dragged into the street and had a bullet put in his brain, or hauled off to a concentration camp. Maybe he was taken to have medical experiments done on him, then had his dead body dumped onto his family's front steps. I'll have to Google it.
@@hankwest5662 Well put and on target. Some can only take cheap shots and low blows because that's all they have. Those that agree with and echo those low blows and cheap shots and think they are somehow relevant expose their lack of sound reasoning. It is that very lack of sound reasoning that would make them susceptible to becoming the very fascists they abhor.

@@123duelist Sir, this is an Arby's.
"he was going through a difficult time in his life" dear lord man
Right? I was having a bad day, so you can't blame me for eating all those people!
Alex tried to say he was going thru a divorce but the judge cut him off. Likely he wanted to tell of his torn larynx and what else was it, a hernia? I imagine his biggest problem was keeping his money during his divorce. Such problems and the only little problem the couple had was death of their 6yr old son.
Thats about all you can expect from a narcissist
@GizzmoD I was thinking the same thing.. full cringe.
If HE was going thru a tough time imagine the parent's plight.
This lawyer has screwed up so bad it's almost like he's sabatoging his own client...the lawyer screwed up Alex getting a trial by withholding requested info and now he sent the opposition privledged information about another case and waited after the 10 day deadline to get it back....this is very bad. Alex gave everything to his lawyers years ago and his lawyers have screwed up at every opportunity. 😳
There is one thing you can't blame on the lawyers... and that's Jones' decade long campaign of defamation against these families. I'm HAPPY to see his lawyers screw up, because this guy deserves nothing but shame and disgrace in his remaining years.
@@Rationalist001Did you watch alex's podcast with joe rogan years ago? It wasn't years of defamation, he questioned a narrative, then admitted he was wrong about that narrative. The ones people should be blaming are the mainstream media that is sensationalizing these shootings, which leads to copy cats.
@@Rationalist001 he's the 3rd lawyer. And Alex did give over 'evidence", just never the evidence that was requested.
4.1 million is actually not that bad...for Alex. And I don't think Alex's lawyer made a difference one way or another. Everybody knows Alex's case.
@@dutchdna there will still be more fines after that, also 4 mil is a lot for him, he doesn't have a lot of money himself despite infowars making a decent amount.
Alex’ cough suddenly left him. Let’s see if it returns with the plaintiffs’ closing statement.
Look up "torn larynx" no such thing... Doctors would call it a fractured larynx if anything but they didn't cause it's a lie.
Semen lotion works for some
Lmao that's true
Alex coughed as I read this comment 😆
anything on the substance of the case to comment on? like any opinion about protecting free speech? any worry you might be dragged into court someday like this for expressing an opinion that the government doesnt like?
I've been a trial lawyer for over 30 years. I thought Alex Jones's lawyer did a terrible job in this trial. Absolutely terrible.
Why
I disagree with that. I thought he did the best he could do
WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK
Trial lawyer here too, 10 years (but not as many trials as you might think). Anyway, hair boy made a couple fair points in closing about proving compensable damages. But on the whole he looked to me more like what Central Casting thinks a lawyer looks like. Otherwise a pretty weak performance, agreed. Can't imagine he was working any repore with jury either, at least I didn't see it.
I agree, he sounds like a traffic court lawyer, and this is the amount of millions.
"Alex Jones was 1500 miles away!" Seriously, that's the argument? In this day and age? He could have been in the International Space Station, they have internet there too, I assume!
Some jurors will take it and buy it. That is just how people are and it is a good effort by the defence attorney.
It seems his closing wasn't changed from the closing he had for the guilt/innocence verdict.
Since Alex wuz 1500 miles away, it is out of there jurisdiction
Yes he did not shoot anyone's children or attack the houses of broken parents. He spoke about the things people had noticed which were odd about the case. Most people don't even have a clue what's going on here.
@@cosmicsquirrel7642 who are you calling people?
The attorney forgets there was video, texts, emails and testimony including Jones committing perjury in court.
Just a dog 🐕 and pony 🦄 show! Literal witch 🧙♂️ hunt. It's not a criminal case. Just a civil clown 🤡 show 🤣
That would be a separate charge & hearing.
He probably wrote the closing arguments yesterday, before the big reveal. LOL
All those emails were about sprinklers
@@johnpichla9557 not a witch hunt. Please don’t fall for the InfoIdiots schtick. .
55:48 Earlier he said Jones' platform is not big. Here he said millions tune in. Is millions not big? Asking sincerely.
That minimisation was grotesque. The InfoIdiot himself boasted at his reach.
They get millions of hits, however no one knows how many are single individual hits, how many are repeat hits, how many just go to the website and leave, how many go to the website and actually engage and listen to the show. I’ll tell you one thing I know for sure...I was curious so I asked 13 people at my company who has heard of Alex. Two people knew knew the name, none ever heard of his website or radio show. One asked if he was a baseball player lol.
@@tioswift3676 More than the number of hits, Alex was at some point very high on the list of people to be invited to other countries to talk about current events in USA and worldwide. This man was a cultural icon and a representation of USA's media regardless of the arguments presented here
“Big” is a relative word. Does Jones get ANY kind of mainstream outreach? No, not really. But he certainly does have millions of viewers. The numbers are murky now because he has his own platform, but the last time we had real numbers he was as high as like 10 million listeners and viewers. That’s about 4-20x more than just about all other major news network show.
But he was doing that with 50-100 employees. So was he “big” compared to empires like Fox News, CNN, MSNBC who employ thousands of employees? Not by size, not even close.
So it just comes down to what “big” is. Alex Jones’ reach is still far and wide, probably more than any major network show outside of Tucker Carlson. But his company size when it comes to employees and net worth it is really small.
@@tioswift3676 if I asked at work I'd get around 80% would know. Guess we need a bigger pool.

How do you know that?
@@r4ng3rownz8 sorry, you think he's some humble modest shy guy by any chance? do you need some research to learn he's arrogant and proud?
…he said “learnt”…
Absolutely. He’s smug behavior is embarrassing.
Nit wits like him have had a field day over the past several years-- mediocrity, ignorance and hatred have been held up as a badge of honor among this crowd. It is sad how far the United States has dropped into the abyss of entitlement and uplifting of the type of human filth on display in this trial. Pathetic
To say that there was "intense interest" in Sandy Hook when it happened, is not a truthful description. There was overwhelming horror and into intense grief, grief that still haunts many of us who don't know the parents and didn't know the children. Just listening again to Jesse's father talk about holding him in his arms with a bullet hole in his head. Even writing this brings tears to my eyes a decade later. If you are a visual person you will see that image in your mind's eye. That's what I see and it's devastating.
well said
The intense interest came from nut jobs like AJ and no one else.
This! While the horror would have receded if "The Short Brutish One" had not been so continuously crass and brutish, we should not forget the reality of the victims pain. We are all victims when this happens if we have an iota of compassion and empathy. I find it ironic that gun rights organizations and political supporters have such a knee jerk "lets not have a hasty emotional reaction and limit guns" reaction after every mass shooting event. If not then, when?
It is still painful to see the pictures of those beautiful children. My heart hurts every time I hear "Sandy Hook." I cannot fathom what the parents and families have gone through. Alex added to the horror.
OK and? People go through stuff everyday.
"Alex doesn't trust the government" he was best buddies with the last president lol.
So that makes him friends with the government? The last President obviously wasnt the government, because that government kept trying to remove him and labeled him a russian agent to oust him. Now they are being prosecuted.
The government hated the last president, id0t.
This lawyer needs to be disbarred.
For what???? You not liking Alex Jones? You guys are so emotional lol.

"I only lit the match ONCE, for 3 seconds"...... "Its not my fault XYZ acres of forest burnt down". That is essentially their closing argument.
Great image - that's how megafires start in California. That's what Alex Jones does - he lights the match to get clicks and sell his vitamins. He lies to make as much money as possible - doesn't care how many innocent people that he injures.
His lawyer defending Alex by saying he doesn't have much of a platform...
Makes millions of dollars of profit from a small Texas audience.. yep...
Only 50 people on staff for making some podcast?
The last company I worked for had 50 employees and we profited millions and were considered a start-up. Alex had 80 employees!! By no means a small platform hahahaha!
@@Gobbledygook30 Work with about 50 people. We make between 1 and a half and 2 million collectively. We've had a good year and going to be over 2 this year. If we were a staff of 15 for a much smaller operation, it would be because they didn't need 50 employees for the volume. Jones could probably hire 70. He should have hired a better Lawyer.
Infowars is still a small business... with 50 employees it's almost a micro business.
Considering alex jones has been taken off youtube , Apple, Spotify, facebook, Twitter etcetera he really doesn't have that much of a platform .... only reason alex jones is a household name is due to the mainstream media magnifying his words.
anyone that outwardly abuses and belittles their wife n children in public deserves the worst imo 🤷
Jones Never checked his facts and he is paying for that sloppy journalism
He knew the facts, but ignored them for the much more profitable conspiracy nonsense he pushed.
He knew exactly what he was doing and he's still doing it.
Or he knew the facts and thought he could blame the source while he made millions running the story.
Lol, Alex sitting there like he gonna accuse his lawyer of conspiring with the judge when he doesn't win 😂
You cough more when your body overheats; your body overheats when it gets nervous; your nerves get messed when you LIE!
I can't believe this lawyer cited the poem from the Holocaust survivor. God, the irony!
What irony? The US government is totalitarian
NO, i think no matter how the layer acts you must not like Alex I like him because I like alex
The point is, if this kind of kangaroo court is allowed to continue, you could say someone has bad hair and get sued in court for hurting their feelings and you can bet it will happen to you too eventually.
Could have been worse. He could have been defended by Rudy Giuliani.
The irony is Alex taught me that poem over 20 years ago and you don't get the point of it yet but if the justice system is aloud to continue this way you soon will
Didn't hear Alex cough once during both closing arguements, not surprising that.
He coughed to buy time to think. The horror

Are we gonna address the elephant in the room? AJ perjured himself 6 ways from Sunday. Also, Federico needs to be censured at the very least . The judge nearly threw him and AJ out of court for contempt. And then the thing with the phone? 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
No "there" there or the Judge would have done something about it.
alex will appeal and win on the federal level i heard him say he will appeal for eternity lol. Sad to see him in court like this hes a true patriot trying to shed light on alot of corrupt things.
@@DAVIS__ Like "chem trails", "lizard people", ...?
You are just as insane as AJ.
@@DAVIS__ prepper does not equate to patriot. I’ve learned that most people who call themselves’ patriots’ are anything but. He’s a pro-Russia troll and a greedy snake oil seller. I don’t doubt his fans are just as putrid. Looking your way…
It is amazing how much damage was done by 0.16%. The defense is proving the plaintiffs case. Way to go
The defense, and the witnesses for the defense, and Alex Jones himself, have been making the plaintiff's case from the very beginning.
Alex better get that cough checked or he'll end up like Rush.
He should eat one of his own health supplements. (Not sure which one, they all seem so great)
I just hope the cough isn't the start of anything trivial.
The fact you wish I'll will only proves you're just as crazy as Alex
16:55 - 17:15 is not an argument, because it gets multi-folded with millions of people in the audience watching it. you can show a video once and people can be harassed for it for the rest of their lives for it. it can even get repeated and shown to new people forever.
I love how he uses the screen now. Learned something from opposing counsel during opening. 😂😂
Haha yes! He looked like such a fool in the beginning literally writing 1 or 2 words per page and then flipping it like he thinks hes making his point better..
You can object but the man already said it.
So hard it took the jury 2 hours to come back with punitive damages of 4 mil
OMG he's telling the "First they came for the...." in the closing? 🤣
Ikr! 😅
spoilers!
We haven an entertainer representing Alex Jones. What more could we ask for :>
@TheSpirit AndTheBride no it isn't. "Speech is free, but you have to pay for your lies."
What evidence? The evidence that you withheld during discovery. $150,000,000 compensation sounds fair.
Maybe more
Do you have any proof that he DIDN'T comply???? Other than... "tHe JuDgE sAiD sO!!!!!"
Here's the thing, Alex Jones "came after" those parents, and he'll do it again if he gets away with it.
Lol
Fact is he never came after anyone except politicians and corrupt leaders.
Those greedy parents are using their dead kid for money… how disgusting
Absolutely he will. He hasn’t learnt any lesson. He was hawking his product on the stand ffs.
@@abbymoe6742 yes he did deny the facts of the dead children...
How.blinf can you pretend to be!
As an adamant believer in First Amendment freedoms, especially speech, expression, choice, belief, opinion, religion, press, consciousness. What I dont support is those who access media and use these freedoms in a defamatory way to further a politIcal agenda. And to use another's personal loss and grief to gain popularity and income via views is not protected speech nor activity. To knowingly do this amidst a national tragedy where children were massacred on a school is an actual injury to all surviving parents.
you sound like a demoRat
So you're saying you don't support the first amendment
Amen brother
@@OnceUponReddit Figure it out, its a mystery mind f$ck.
@Eric Spoken like a true democrat of today, stand tall and firm for what you believe - until you get off the podium. Hillary comes to mind.
This incompetent, preening, lying lawyer (who gave opposing counsel the finger, and flushed his client's case down the toilet by accidentally sending all the client's texts for the last 2 years to opposing counsel, and then failing to claim that info as privileged when he had the chance) has just delivered an extremely weak closing argument. Big surprise.
Funny that...Alex Jones lied to you about Sandy Hook...lied under oath got caught...and has to pay for his actions...bwahahahaha
@Money Moe I think he was supposed to be🤔
That's why he's getting accused of throwing, because he should know better.
@@sycofreake1 He should have known better to hide evidence that he was required to hand over in discovery that Alex Jones said he didn't have?
I think he is purposely throwing the case to give Jones a second chance in appeal claiming incompetent council. Apparently he is very good and to make the blunders he has shows his intent.
Jones has had so many lawyers in this case this is just the latest.
Alex and his lawyer think this is the first trial THEY decided to dip.🤦♂️
Is it possible that Jones' deliberately hired a lawyer who is either genuinely out of his depth (or just pretending to be) in order to claim later that he did not receive a fair/adequate trial and so delay further justice and accountability? That a retrial would be required and Jones could keep extending the date on which he would face full consequences for his actions?
The lawyer has asked for a mistrial 17 times!!!
It is so obvious that the strategy was to get a mistrial. They made "accidental" mistakes all the time. This trial isn't 2 weeks. It has been going on for more than 6 months.
You can see that the judge is so fed up with this case. I would have been as well in her place. But for her it's over now.
Now it's up to the court of appeal, as AJ will appeal.
No because this guy was a federal prosecutor that did well while he was. I think that they don't want to do well. No one can screw up that much.
@@theoriginal_ The OP also stated 'pretending to be'. Just saying.
If he abuses Martin Niemöller to lobby for a right wing extremist, he should at least work on the pronounciation, I wouldn't have known who he spoke about if not for the citation. Nemo is a Clownfish - while I certainly believe he has some proclivity for clowns.
Is it a requirement that everyone who works for Alex Jones must have the most absurd haircut imaginable?
Even a first year lawyer knows to take your hand out of your pockets when addressing the jury ( or any other time). This lawyer spoke SLOWLY because he had nothing he could say to show that Jones was not a scumbag, so he dragged out every useless detail to fill up one hour of time, otherwise his presentation would have been 15 minutes long at most.
His body his choice.
lol what are you listening to? he did a pretty standard and competent closing. ive heard 30 minutes so far and they have been straight forward and what you usually get from a closing. and i used to work in the court system and listen to these everyday.
Literally 80% of lawyers have this same exact posture and stance when addressing the jury. Some of these comments are hilarious
Your comment is wrong multiple times. There are just guidelines. It is a style choice. There are people who come across really bad when their hands are out of their pockets.
@@SeanPGribbons I would not go that far with the statistics, but the amount of likes on clueless comments are off the charts in the Jones trial. It is all too entertaining. Thanks Law and Crime
i love the fact that they are trying to hide behind the fact there isnt all the needed evidence, which they were found liable due to not giving forward said evidence
Exactly. There's stuff that didn't come out in discovery because we refused to participate in discovery. Making $ out of other people's suffering is his legacy.
we got a 42 year old drug addict hereXD chill out crack head
For 10,000 dollars may be
He’s saying there’s no evidence of their damages. Lost wages, medical bills etc. that’s not stuff the defense would provide in discovery.
@@missinterpretation4984 no hes saying there is only 27 hours of Sandy Hook coverage on IW
Wow, this guy is a licensed attorney? He passed the bar? Yikes. but then Alex Jones deserves him.
Oh goodness.
This might be the second worst defense performance I've seen ever. The only one worse was that murderer that defended himself he had to cross-examine his own kid.
I have only read about something like that and barely remember but wasn't that some crazy dude who killed his girlfriend/wife and one of his children ?
Can you imagine if he wins the case, that'll be a life lesson!
shad up, ya
i know the case you are referring to but i can't help but remember the long island subway shooter case, guy is clearly schizophrenic representing himself in a multiple murder trial! snl even did a skit on it!
This is hardly the second worst. You should watch more trials on Law and Crime there are some terrible performances in there for paid-for defence attorneys. There are opening/closing arguments where the defence attorney does not even try to sway the jury, which is essential. Redit: It is funny that I just recalled that there were similar comments on the Kim Potter trial, which probably had one of the best defences (paid for) to lose a trial that I have seen
Also, "The Sandy Hook shooter only spent 0.000000001% of his lifetime shooting people, he shouldn't be held at fault for the damage done."
The prosecution would have you think Alex was made off Sandy Hook segments, so a consideration of their time spent covering it would be relevant. H even said they lost money and viewers over it.
These irresponsible US states have let Alex Jones turn their own citizens into ignorant, superstitious savages, unable to work in reality, unable to correctly evaluate data, and unable to divorce fiction from non-fiction, treating both with the same level of credibility.
Legend has it that Jones is still chewing on the same gauze.
"Shoot a bow and arrow".
Did this guy go to college?
"Archery"
Is he a legit Lawyer? I mean.. for real??
Could have been worse. He could have been defended by Rudy Giuliani.
@@eternalskeptic Say it 35 more times and maybe ONE PERSON will like it.
@@eternalskeptic OMG 😂😂 I would pay $100 or more to watch Rudy defend Alex
How can there be questions about the murder of 20, 6 yrs. olds? There are many questions.
This trial is to determine the compensatory amount(s) that the plaintiffs' (the child victims' parents) ((2 represented in court)), will be awarded from Alex Jones.
I heard Alex will win with an appeal plus hes filing bankruptcy. I'm sure these liberals are furious that they cant shut Alex Jones down. Like spoiled children who take toys but dont share them(wineasses)!!!!
Yeah I don't think you actually know what's going on here bud. It's a civil case to determine damages, brought by the tormented parents of one of the poor shot kids. Alex Jones didn't provide his material when asked, for four years, so is found liable pre-trial because he didn't enter a defense which is the same as admitting culpability in the eyes of the law. This trial is to find a dollar amount for damages to the parent.
" Ladies & gentlemen of the jury
Who am I why am I here ? ... "
“That’s all that’s in evidence but there could be more.” Inappropriate for a judge! Omg
Reason for appeal right there. Geezo. 😒
You realize they're not done, right?
I know that every American deserves a robust defense. I suppose the most shameful person in the country for what he did factors into this concept. This attorney is as despicable as his client, and as as big a liar.
🔥🔥🐂🐄🐄🐂🐂🐃🐃🐄🐄🐂🐂🤺
So easy to poke holes in his statements and I’ve only watched 14 minutes. I’ll keep watching to the end.
This guy is horrible. I started to feel bad for Jones. 😂 I wonder if Jones is sitting there thinking he’s doing this pro bono right? This is how you argue when you don’t have anything of substance. All his analogies made no sense.
Ok poke a few holes please! Show and prove your ultimate smartness!!.............................
I doubt you will even consider to do this at all liberal....
Now ya can't use that
Does this lawyer needs to take two showers after this speech. Like how do you defend this
what, defend a guy for saying things? why are the comments here way harsher than the ones on the nikolus cruz hearings?
watch the first episode of better call saul
also nah everybody has rights to defense in court for the most part in the US...somebody has to do it
@@authenticambience4765 Welcome to the Law and Crime comments section on RUclips. Get comfortable as it is always at least like this and sometimes much worse :>
What an arrogant, smirking jerk AJ's lawyer is. His "Don Johnson, Miami Vice" I'm a "kool dude", so you should believe what I say, not what the evidence shows is disgusting. He's an embarrassment the legal profession! Shame on Bar Associations for allowing his behavior to stand!
No he's not. He's telling the truth you fckn a**hole. His character is on the line.
Could have been worse. He could have been defended by Rudy Giuliani.
That mullet though
Yes, you'd think with all Alex Jones' wealth he could have got himself adequate legal representation!!
The judge called him on his “Aw shucks” phony play acting.
Alex Jones defense: It's the SYSTEM that is guilty!
His dog stepped on a bee.
The defense is that although defamation occured there is NO EVIDENCE of actual damage. None of the parents victims lost jobs or income, they had their feelings hurt, but no loss of income. The evidence proves lies, but not the claim that the plaintiff is entitled to 75 million dolllars.
actually it is, but you fake news cultist bots are literally zombies😁
@@downswingplayer9712 🤣🤣🤣
That's because the prosecution has already labeled him Guilty !! Now they want the jury to see how GUILTY he is supposed to be. Watch his show and learn !!
Imagining having this on your resume.....!
OMG that is just such a useless defense. I cannot think anything other than GUILTY, GUILTY, GUILTY. ALL evidence demonstrates it. What a waste of time.
Wow. That was a very strong start to the defense attorney’s closing. Nuh, just kidding. His performance throughout, including the closing, was just poor. 🤪
Waste of millions of dollars
Or, the guy had zero chance. Alex Jones gave him nothing to work with. His record of lies and conspiracy crap was there for all to see.
😂😂😂
fr at first I thought this was Alex's stepson or something that he just called up to come put on a costume and speak for him
it was a pretty standard and competent closing, not sure what you are referring to.
It's like listening to the most boring car salesman in the world
Did anybody notice that the "leaving Neverland" documentary maker is the guy you see filming this?
He looks like Jack McCoy played by Sam Waterson in Law and Order
