Judge suspends law license of lawyer for Alex Jones following Sandy Hook document leaks 

CNN — 

A Connecticut judge suspended the law license of a lawyer for right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones after he allegedly improperly released court documents from the Sandy Hook defamation case.

The files included two years of Jones’ text messages, medical records from some of the Sandy Hook families and other confidential discovery items.

“At a basic level, attorneys must competently and appropriately handle the discovery of sensitive materials in civil cases,” Judge Barbara Bellis wrote in a court order that suspended attorney Norman Pattis’ license for six months. “Otherwise, our civil system, in which discovery of sensitive information is customary and routine, would simply collapse.”  https://www.cnn.com/2023/01/06/politics/alex-jones-lawyer-suspended-sandy-hook/?dicbo=v2-e3ad6f90148b678011db7ab4aa7878b3&hpt=ob_blogfooterold
