“The Young Turks” executive producer Ana Kasparian said she made a mistake by covering disgraced COVID-19 conspiracy theorist Rebekah Jones falsely accusing Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis of having her son arrested.
Jones accused DeSantis of having her 13-year-old son arrested over a lawsuit she filed against the Florida Department of Health over a debunked claim that the Florida governor covered up the number of COVID-19 cases in the state. She further accused the DeSantis administration of firing her over her refusal to falsify the case numbers.
Authorities arrested Jones’ son due to several posts allegedly threatening a school shooting, according to Check Your Fact. He was turned into the sheriff’s office and scheduled to be arraigned in May, before being released under electronic monitoring and ordered not to contact anyone at the school.
