Wisconsin man who claimed that the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting never happened ordered to pay $450,000 to father of boy killed in the massacre.
A Wisconsin man who claimed that the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting never happened was ordered to pay $450,000 to the father of a boy killed in the massacre.
On Tuesday, a Dane County jury decided on the amount Fetzer must pay Pozner, according to one of Pozner's attorneys. A judge ruled in June that Pozner was defamed by claims made in the book, including that he fabricated copies of his son's death certificate, the AP reported. "Mr. Fetzer has the right to believe that Sandy Hook never happened," he said."He has the right to express his ignorance. This award, however, further illustrates the difference between the right of people like Mr. Fetzer to be wrong and the right of victims like myself and my child to be free from defamation, free from harassment and free from the intentional infliction of terror.
