"Alex Jones’ lawyers in the Sandy Hook case have asked a judge not to allow evidence of white supremacy or far-right extremism in the courtroom.

Jones, the host of Infowars and a far-right conspiracy theorist, has already lost the defamation lawsuit over his involvement in spreading a conspiracy that painted the parents of children murdered in the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting as “crisis actors,” so the jury trial is set to determine how much he will pay in damages.

Lawyers for Jones filed a motion on Tuesday asking the judge to preclude “the introduction of evidence on the topics of white supremacy and right-wing extremism.” The lawyers don’t focus upon the veracity of the ties but more so that “such evidence is not relevant to the issues that will be before the jury and would also be unfairly prejudicial and inflammatory to the defendants.”

Jones and Infowars have lost multiple defamation lawsuits over the last two years, including ones in Connecticut and Texas over defaming Sandy Hook parents and another in Connecticut over Infowars falsely identifying a man as a mass shooter."
