Who is Alex Jones' wife? Erika Wulff-Jones arrested for domestic violence

Alex who once called Sandy Hook massacre a 'giant hoax' is being mocked at on the Internet after the news about Erika's arrest broke

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' wife was taken into custody on Christmas Eve for a domestic violence charge. She was booked into an Austin, Texas, jail around 8:45 pm on Friday, December 24, and continues to remain in custody after failing to make bond on Christmas day. Alex declined to comment on whether he had been injured during the altercation or what led to the situation. The 'Infowars' host had once called the Sandy Hook massacre a "giant hoax" and Internet users aren't sympathizing with him, rather he's become the butt of several jokes. 

Last month, Alex was found guilty in all four defamation cases filed against him after he called the brutal school shooting a hoax that was orchestrated to increase gun control. Families of eight people killed by Adam Lanza sued Jones claiming that he profited from painting a false narrative about their loved ones. Jones was asked to turn in certain documents including his financial records which he didn't while disputing the claims. It is yet to be determined how much in damages he and the other defendants might have to shell out. Juries in Connecticut and Texas will decide during the trials scheduled for next year.

Who is Alex Jones wife Erika Wulff-Jones?

Wulff-Jones is being held at Travis County Sheriff's Office and a spokeswoman said she couldn't comment or provide any information regarding her arrest. Speaking to Associated Press on the day of the arrest, Alex said, "It's a private family matter that happened on Christmas Eve. I love my wife and care about her and it appears to be some kind of medication imbalance." He added that his wife's arrest "doesn't concern my politics" and that "it wasn't some kind of a personal hateful thing or anything." Earlier this week Jones sought to block subpoenas issued to him by House committee investigating the Insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6. He had spoken at a pro-Trump rally that proceeded the riot and his colleague Owen Shroyer was charged with several misdemeanor counts including disorderly conduct and entering a restricted area of the Capitol. 

Coming back to Wulff-Jones, she is the founder and yoga instructor at New Order Yoga. She studied Comparative History, Cultural Conflict Mediation at the University of Washington in the early 2000s. Later on, she completed a 500 hour Registered Yoga Teacher training course in Austin and founded her yoga studio in May 2012. She married Alex in 2017 after his 2015 divorce with Kelly Jones. Alex's haters have taken to social media to poke fun at him after the news of Erika's arrest made press. "Alex Jones got beat up by his wife on Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas," a Twitter user wrote. "Madison Cawthorn’s wife is divorcing him after 8 months and Alex Jones’ wife was arrested on domestic violence charges. The GQP celebrates Christmas in the holiest of ways," read another tweet. "Starting a gofund me Christmas fund next year for Rand Paul's neighbor and Alex Jones' wife," read another tweet.
