my man AJ was sitting there for like 30 minutes, boiling mad because he couldn't shout back like in his podcasts, and at one point when the lawyer was saying something about "Alex is not the real victim, that's ridiculous", Alex almost lunged at him and someone behind him put his hand on Alex to hold him back

tbh I missed whatever Alex said, but he was clearly rocking back and forth in his seat lol

Alex fuckin' squared up in his chair, and the lawyer continued his addressed-directly-to-Alex-using-Alex's-name-and-looking-him-in-the-eyes diatribe. Didn't give him an inch. It was incredible.

I want to emphatically state that I am not a lawyer. I have never passed the bar exam. I do not keep up to date on current law. I completely talk out of my own rear end when it comes to this topic and will always be up front and admit that.


But I also think I think I would be a better lawyer than Reynal. Infact, I'm thinking about getting into it now because I'm clearly overqualified.

How many parents can just sue him after this for the same thing? I know it must suck to be last to the trough, but honestly he's going to keep making stupid money hand over fist every year until he croaks from a massive heart attack right? How many other weird things can he get sued over from all the years he's been spewing insanity for?

In Texas, defamation requires the person being defamed to be specifically named. Alex Jones has been a bit more careful about saying names.
CT doesn't have this requirement which is why different parents are suing him there.
I believe he is also being sued by the person he misidentified as the Parkland Shooter.

I wonder if that's about to change because you know he named names in that data drop.

Lawyers wanna comment?

I can only speak about up here (Canada), but our jurisprudence is clear that illegally-obtained evidence can still be presented in civil Court, provided it is not otherwise privileged.

NOT LEGAL ADVICE.

We gazed into the eyes of madness... And all we found was horny.




I’m half seriously wondering if his lawyer is deliberately trying to make a case for the trial to be thrown out on incompetent counsel grounds.

How do you accidentally send the plaintiffs such incredibly damning evidence?

I’m very unsure what Reynal is even good at when it comes to trial. He very loving bad at civ pro, he’s poo poo at controlling his own witnesses, and his grasp on the rules of evidence is shaky at best.

I haven’t been chair in court in a long time and I would not make most of those mistakes.

Honestly, this just reminds me of when I was in litigation support and had to work on a case involving IP theft. I was asked to load the defendant's Outlook history onto a PC, and the VERY FIRST email that comes up is the guy emailing all the relevant data to his personal email account. I pretty much looked at the attorneys, shrugged and said "Welp, there ya go."

This phone stuff is like, three orders of magnitude more incompetent and I love it.

Depends on the evidence and jurisdiction but you can often introduce it in civil cases as long as you can lay a proper foundation.

Most of the search/seizure rules apply to state actions so criminal cases.

I think that's the HBO crew. There's the youtube stream which is run by the court and cannot be duplicated or rewound, one other youtube channel that's allowed to film, and supposedly a documentary film crew.

The bald guy will be following the other trials as well by the sound of it.
