Lewis asks Jones: "Do you have empathy?"
Lewis to Jones: "Having a six-year-old son shot in his forehead in his classroom is unbearable. ... And then to have someone on top of that perpetuate a lie that it was a hoax, that it didn't happen, that it was a false flag, that I was an actress — You think I'm an actress?"
Jones starts to respond that he doesn't think Lewis is an actress. Judge reprimands him for speaking & tells court that only Lewis is testifying right now. Lewis takes responsibility for Jones talking, noting she asked him a question. Judge orders silence from everyone but Lewis.
Lewis talks about her work trying to unite people and notes we are "polarized as a country."
"Some of that is because of you," she tells Jones.

Lewis to Jones: "I think you know that Sandy Hook is real and that it happened. ... But I don't think you understand — at all — the repercussions of going on air with a huge audience and lying and calling this a hoax. ... You don't understand that."
"It seems so incredible to me that we have to do this," Lewis tells Jones. "That we have to implore you — not just implore you, punish you — to get you to stop lying. ... It is surreal what is going on in here."
