Summary
Alex Jones has sued Sandy Hook families and The Onion’s parent company, Global Tetrahedron, alleging a conspiracy in their joint $1.75M bid to acquire Infowars during a bankruptcy auction.
Jones claims their bid unfairly appeared more valuable due to the families waiving portions of their payout, benefiting other defamation victims.
The bankruptcy trustee dismissed the allegations as baseless. Sandy Hook families vowed to hold Jones accountable, while the auction process faces judicial scrutiny over transparency.
A hearing is scheduled for November 25. Jones owes over $1B in defamation damages.
Careful, Alex. By the time you’re done you might owe another billion to them, considering your thin knowledge of how anything works ever.
When you owe the bank a thousand dollars, that’s your problem. When you owe the bank a million dollars, that’s the bank’s problem.
The Sandy Hook families already know they will never recover the entire damages award. Spending real money on any future lawsuit won’t put another dime in their pockets, only add to the portion that never gets paid because he won’t make it in his lifetime. They’ll probably do it anyway for the satisfaction of making him squirm in front of a judge, but owing another billion is irrelevant.
