Ghent Prof apologises for words on Alex Jones show | VRT NWS: news

The head of Ghent University, Rector Rik Van de Walle, has distanced himself from what Ghent professor Mattias Desmet said on Alex Jones’s American talk show. Jones is famous for supporting conspiracy theories and was recently convicted by an American court for denying the Sandy Hook massacre. Prof Desmet told US TV viewers that he had seen open heart surgery in Belgium conducted under hypnosis and without sedation. The lecturer now says that’s something he never witnessed and has apologised.
