Attorneys for right-wing provocateur Alex Jones argued Wednesday with the attorneys of Sandy Hook parents suing Jones for defamation. The heated exchange in the courtroom came after proceedings for the day had ended but were captured on camera, KXAN reported.

The argument arose in the Austin district courtroom where Jones is facing a civil trial for spreading lies stating the Sandy Hook, Conn. shooting never happened. Mark Bankston, attorney for the Sandy Hook parents, contested whether Jones' attorneys were allowed to play certain full video clips from Jones' show Infowars as evidence in the trial.

Bankston had played several different Infowars clips in which Jones or guests of the show discussed the Sandy Hook shooting during Wednesday's trial proceedings. ....................

The dispute continued on the courtroom floor after Wednesday's proceedings. At one point, Jones' attorney Reynal said "how about some brutal honesty?" and gave Bankston the middle finger. Another attorney on the parents' legal team eventually suggested they settle the dispute over the phone, ending the confrontation. .....................................

1. also he is once again lying about bankruptcy to try and get out of this.........

our court system is so fucked up that people can do this. it should take a judge 5 seconds to realize "oh, you are about to have a judgment against you for millions of dollars, and it just an amazing coincidence that you file for bankruptcy today? Fuck off."

New York (CNN Business)Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' primary company filed for bankruptcy protection on Friday, an unexpected move that comes as a trial is underway in Texas to determine how much in damages he will have to pay the families of two Sandy Hook victims who sued and won a default judgment against him.
Jones' decision to seek bankruptcy protection for his company, Free Speech Systems, which operates the right-wing conspiratorial outlet Infowars, also comes after he was found legally responsible in a separate defamation case in Connecticut.
In that Connecticut case, a different group of families similarly sued Jones over false claims he made about the 2012 Sandy Hook shooting.

Three smaller companies tied to Jones declared bankruptcy earlier this year, briefly pausing the cases in both Texas and Connecticut. But the families suing Jones dropped the three smaller companies from their lawsuits so that the cases could move forward against Jones and Free Speech Systems. Shortly after, the three companies exited bankruptcy protection.
