A lawyer for the families asked a judge for an emergency order requiring Jones to show up to be deposed or be arrested and brought in to testify.
HARTFORD, Conn. — Lawyers for relatives of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims asked a judge Wednesday to order Infowars host Alex Jones to appear at a deposition and have him arrested if he doesn’t, after Jones failed to show up at the proceeding after citing undisclosed medical conditions.
In an email to The Associated Press, Mattei said the judge, Barbara Bellis, ordered Jones to submit to questioning Thursday and asked the lawyers to submit briefs on whether she can issue an arrest order if he fails to appear again. On Tuesday, Pattis asked in a court filing that the deposition be postponed, because Jones was under the care of a doctor for undisclosed medical conditions that require “immediate, and possibly, emergency testing,” and the doctor’s opinion was that Jones should not appear at the deposition. Bellis denied the request.Jones, however, broadcasted his daily show Tuesday from the Infowars studio in Austin, Smith confirmed in a court filing Wednesday.
