Jones missed both days of a scheduled deposition Wednesday and Thursday in Austin, Texas, home to Jones and Infowars. He cited a health problem that included vertigo and revealed Friday that it was a sinus infection. After he didn't show up Wednesday on the advice of his doctors, Connecticut Judge Barbara Bellis ordered him to appear Thursday, noting he wasn't hospitalized and had appeared in-person on his show Tuesday.
The families' lawyers filed a motion late Friday afternoon requesting that Jones be arrested and detained until he sits for a deposition, be fined US$25,000 to $50,000 a day until he completes the questioning, be found in contempt of court and to pay their expenses for traveling to Austin this week. Jones' lawyer, Norman Pattis, called the request "an unprecedented overreach" and raised concerns about due process, in an email to The Associated Press.
In November, Bellis found Jones liable for damages, and his testimony is now being sought in a deposition ahead of a trial later this year to determine how much he should pay the families.
I’m sure if he is arrested you’ll find some fascist MEPs to complain this is stifling freedom.
POS
I wouldn’t be surprised it the Republicans try to make him president…
Ironically, if he was in a country where half of the things he said were actually true, they would have shot him and shut him up by now.
Anyone else would be picked up
