Sandy Hook Parents' Attorney Tells Judge 'Various' Federal and 'Law Enforcement' Agencies Want Acces

Source: Law and Crime

After the bombshell revelations that Alex Jones’s legal team inadvertently disclosed years of his phone data, an attorney for a Sandy Hook victim’s parents disclosed that “various” law enforcement agents want to scrutinize the information.

Attorney Mark Bankston let Jones — and the rest of the world — know about his lawyer’s accidental disclosure of 2.3 gigabytes of cell phone data in the middle during cross-examination on Wednesday, apparently stunning the Infowars founder. Jones scoffed that it was Bankston’s “Perry Mason moment,” and Bankston suggested that the contents showed that Jones lied under oath.

On Thursday, Jones’s lawyer Andino Reynal tried to mitigate the fallout by asking Travis County Judge Maya Guerra Gamble to order the wholesale deletion of the data and declare a mistrial.

Bankston argued that Jones’s legal team effectively waived any privilege to the information by failing to assert it within 10 days.

The judge said she would take a "little" time to decide if anything should be withheld. (The medical records of the Sandy Hook plaintiffs had already been deleted.)

This conversation may be good for my weight loss efforts. Maybe you could monetize that...the Stone-Jones Diet Plan!!!

I'm pretty sure some online sleuths (bellingcat, anonymous) have already gotten this.

Of course the russians and probably chinese/israeli/iranian/vatican/etc services also have copies.

I forget that accidental-on purpose data dumps are a thing these days. Phone's contents will most likely show up by mid-next week.

I've learned never to underestimate hackers, regardless of their intentions, I treat them like wait-staff when eating out: never piss one off. Or else.

what knowledge we would gain from the Secret Service phones. There probably aren't enough cells in Leavenworth for the politicians, Military, Police, National Guard, and SS agents who would be implicated........
