'We have no idea whether he was even murdered at this point.'
InfoWars host Alex Jones promoted a conspiracy about the father of a Sandy Hook school shooting victim, who was found dead on Monday morning.
Jones appeared to suggest that Richman's death would impact his ability to receive a trial in the defamation cases brought against him. After the Sandy Hook shooting in 2012, Jones questioned if the massacre was staged and pushed the idea that the families were crisis actors being used to advance a plot to confiscate guns. Richman is a plaintiff in one of the suits being waged against Jones.
The InfoWars host claimed after the 2018 Parkland shooting that student survivors and gun-control activists were Democratic Party operatives. Others promoted a range of conspiracies after the shooting. Right-wing figures alleged that the student activists were crisis actors and the operation was a false flag.
Newsweek reached out to the offices of Koskoff, Koskoff & Bieder, which is representing the plaintiffs suing Jones, but did not hear back prior to publication.
