Alex Jones files for bankruptcy after billiondollar Sandy Hook court ruling
"Rightwing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, according to a court filing.
Jones was ordered by a Connecticut court last month to pay $473m in punitive damages on top of a nearly $1bn verdict handed down in October for his defamatory claims about the 2012 Sandy Hook mass shooting, after he claimed the massacre was faked.
A court filing showed Jones filed for Chapter 11 protection from creditors with the US bankruptcy court in Houston. The filing said Jones has between $1m and $10m of assets and between $1bn and $10bn of liabilities. It also refers to Free Speech Systems, a Jones affiliate and Infowars’ parent, as having filed for bankruptcy in July.
In October, a Connecticut jury in a case brought by relatives of more than a dozen Sandy Hook victims ordered Jones and Free Speech Systems to pay nearly $1bn in damages.
In a separate case in Texas, a jury in August decided Jones must pay the parents of a 6-year-old boy killed in the Sandy Hook massacre $45.2m in punitive damages, on top of $4.1m in compensatory damages."
