Dave Aronberg, state attorney for Palm Beach County, Florida, agreed that prosecutors could possibly file perjury charges against Jones. "His legal problems are not over," he told CNN.
Bankston also said the January 6 committee, which deposed Jones in January 2022, had requested the phone records, but he wasn't sure the data covered the time period leading up to and after the incident. In the subpoena letter, Rep. Bennie Thompson, the Democratic chairman, has charged that Jones helped organize the Jan. 6 rally and repeatedly promoted President Trump’s false claims of election fraud.
Jones has certainly attempted to depict himself and his operation as hurting financially. In late July, Jones' main company Free Speech Systems, the parent company of Infowars, filed for bankruptcy. That came months after three of Jones' other companies including InfoW, which was formerly known as InfoWars, also filed for bankruptcy. During this week's trial Jones testified that any award over $2 million would "sink us."
