    Background: Alex Jones' InfoWars has been spreading the lie that the elementary school shooting at Sandy Hook was a hoax perpetrated by liberals to take away people's guns. He is now facing a trial over the matter.

    Firs two paragraphs:

    AUSTIN, Tex. — In the five years since Noah Pozner was killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., death threats and online harassment have forced his parents, Veronique De La Rosa and Leonard Pozner, to relocate seven times. They now live in a high-security community hundreds of miles from where their 6-year-old is buried.

    “I would love to go see my son’s grave and I don’t get to do that, but we made the right decision,” Ms. De La Rosa said in a recent interview. Each time they have moved, online fabulists stalking the family have published their whereabouts.
