Picture was among cache of messages inadvertently handed over by Infowars host's lawyer to opposition legal team.
He stopped short of saying that he had sent it to Stone, who received a pardon from Trump after federal authorities investigating Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election charged him. Nonetheless, the decision marked a victory for Sandy Hook families, who have said the Infowars host’s lies about the massacre inspired threats and harassment from his rabid following and made it impossible for them to heal. Earlier in the committee’s investigation, Jones underwent a deposition, but he invoked his constitutional right against self-incrimination throughout the proceeding. And it was a substantial rebuke of Jones, who faces two similar lawsuits from other Sandy Hook families despite his media company’s attempts to shield itself by recently requesting federal bankruptcy protections. But it wasn’t until after Jones’s ranting that Bankston elaborated on what exactly those intimate messages entailed. The lawyer, Mark Bankston, the recipient of the accidental leak, appeared on Monday on the Young Turks progressive news commentary show to confirm that one of the texts in question contained a naked photo of Jones’s wife sent to Stone, once an adviser to former president Donald Trump.
Mark Bankston, the lawyer for the Sandy Hook parents who sued Alex Jones, said he didn't know if the photo was consensual.
“It might be consensual, but when I see that and I don’t see any indication that it was, I’m concerned something might not be on the up-and-up with that. And on Monday, Bankston joined The Young Turks to make another shocking (or not-so-shocking?) reveal: Jones sent a naked photo of his wife to Roger Stone. Bankston didn’t bring this matter up unprompted—he acknowledged Jones’ recent claims that there was an intimate photo of his wife on his phone.
