Description
The trial to determine how much right wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones should pay for spreading lies about the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school shooting was adversarial, emotional, and at times downright bizarre. The proceedings saw both Jones and his legal team repeatedly reprimanded by the judge, while opposing counsel also delivered a bombshell about Jones’ lawyers inadvertently turning over evidence they tried to bury. On this week’s episode we welcome Law360’s Christine DeRosa to break down the surreal scenes coming out of the Texas courtroom. Also this week, Visa stays mired in a lawsuit over its alleged financing of child pornography, and the hosts take a look at a sweeping challenge to Trump-era China tariffs in the return of Trade Law With A-Law. Finally, the Tennessee judge already booted from an opioids case for being too outspoken gets suspended from the bench for a far more salacious infraction.
