SCOTUS Refuses to Hear Jones
Appeal in Sandy Hook Case

By ROBERT STORACE
The reaction from attorneys representing
relatives of people killed at Sandy Hook El-
ementary School was quick, and pointed to
the news that the U.S. Supreme Court declined
late Monday to hear an appeal from conservative
national syndicated radio host Alex Jones, who
was sanctioned for his on-air rant against oppos-
ing counsel.
Josh Koskoff, lead attorney for the families and a
partner with Koskoff Koskoff & Bieder in Bridge-
port, said the defamation lawsuit against Jones, the
Texas-based InfoWars host, was all about holding
him accountable for his actions.
In a Tuesday statement, Koskoff wrote: “We are
pleased that the Supreme Court denied the peti-
tion, allowing the well-justified sanctions against
Mr. Jones to stand. The families are eager to re-
sume their case and to hold Mr. Jones and his
financial network accountable for their actions. Alex Jones in December 2018.
