According to a report from NBC Connecticut, one of the attorneys for Infowars founder Alex Jones has his law license suspended for six months for what a judge called a lack of "fundamental fairness and decency," while defending his controversial client.

At issue, as attorney Norm Pattis plans to appeal the ruling, was his public release of private files related to the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012 that left 26 dead as well as their attacker.

According to the report, Pattis "allegedly released unauthorized Sandy Hook files. The files released include the personal medical records of several Sandy Hook families during the Connecticut defamation case."

That, in turn, led Judge Barbara Bellis to order the suspension in a ruling on Thursday.

Pattis acknowledged the judgment, saying he's currently in Washington, D.C. for the Proud Boys insurrection case.

6. These unethical GOP attorneys must have dark money funding them?

They don't seem to care if they get suspended or lose their license.
