The far right was afraid Sandy Hook might actually spur the American people to demand more restrictions on gun ownership. Claiming this was a hoax and the families were crisis actors gave gun nuts some cover to fight restrictions. Sadly, even Sandy Hook didn’t make the American people demand change.
The real answer is that he owned a website that hustled goods like t-shirts and copper armbands to help arm pain. He had a ton of followers that increased during mass shootings and therefore, his sales of other crap also went up. His wife was interviewed for a book I read recently about Sandy Hook and she basically said that she begged him not say it was a hoax and initially, he didn't. He then saw his viewership increase and was suddenly on the band wagon. Sales increased and then it downhill from there.

Probably not. US courts can’t force offshore accounts to disclose information…that’s why dictators and crooks move their money there

So much money.
I believe they said they made $800,000 in one day. Now he’s claiming he’s bankrupt. He is truly disgusting.
And he probably sent his money into some offshore bank account and the Sandy hook parents won’t see a penny.
