Alex Jones

A Texas jury will decide if Infowars' Alex Jones on-air persona makes him unfit to have custody of his three children with ex-wife Kelly Jones.

"He's playing a character," attorney Randall Wilhite told state District Judge Orlinda Naranjo, according to the Austin-American Statesman. "He is a performance artist."

Kelly Jones, who is seeking sole or joint custody of their three children, argued at a pre-trial hearing that her ex-husband's fiery public persona is no different from his private life.

"He's not a stable person," she said. "He says he wants to break Alec Baldwin's neck. He wants J-Lo to get raped."

"I'm concerned that he is engaged in felonious behavior, threatening a member of Congress," she said, referring to Jones' comments about Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif. "He broadcasts from home. The children are there, watching him broadcast."
