Lawyer for San Bernardino Gunman’s Family Floats Sandy Hook Trutherism
Appearing alongside attorney Mohammad Abuershaid, David Chesley said there were “a lot of questions” in the wake of the Newtown, Connecticut shooting, where 20 children and 6 adults were killed. Abuershaid and Chesley have been identified as attorneys representing the Farook family.
“There was a lot of questions drawn with regards to Sandy Hook and whether or not that was a real incident or not. We just don’t know,” Chesley said, in video published Friday by British tabloid The Daily Mail.
The Mail reported that Chesley, asked directly if he questioned the attack at Sandy Hook, said: “There has been a lot [sic] speculation about it is all I would say.”
Regarding the weapons cache police said was recovered after the shooting, which included more than 1,400 rounds of ammunition and 12 pipe bombs, Chesley said: “Obviously, these things were found there, how they got there we don’t know.”
