What people don’t really understand is that Jones refused to mount a defense. He refused to turn over requested documents for years and that is why a summary judgement was levied against him.
The documents that he did turn over showed that they all new that Wolfgang Halbig was a kook but they kept supporting him because Sandy Hook coverage bumped traffic and sales.
I am still amazed by the latitude that is given to clowns like Jones with regards to the penalty- just put him in jail until he forks the money over. The trial ended quite a while ago.
