Hibberts Win Harassment Lawsuit Against Conspiracy Theorist

Martin Hibbert and his daughter Eve, who were severely injured in the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing, have won a harassment lawsuit against Richard Hall, a conspiracy theorist who claimed the attack was staged. Hall, a former television producer, alleged that the bombing was a hoax and published these claims in a book and several videos, even filming Eve Hibbert outside her home. High Court judge Mrs. Justice Steyn ruled in favor of the Hibberts, stating that Hall's actions caused significant distress and anxiety. The court has yet to decide on the data protection aspect of the lawsuit. The Hibberts' legal victory is seen as a step toward protecting others from similar harassment in the future.
