Six adults and 20 children were killed during the shooting in December 2012 in Newtown, Connecticut, just 20 miles away from where victims' families gave tearful testimony in Waterbury Superior Court during the trial.

"Are we in China? I’ve already said I’m sorry hundreds of times and I’m done saying I’m sorry." Infowars' parent company, Free Speech Systems, filed for bankruptcy shortly before Jones' trial began.
