Popular Post Scott Posted October 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 12, 2022 Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones has been ordered to pay $965m (£869m) in damages after falsely claiming the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax. The families of eight victims, and an FBI agent who responded to the attack, had sought at least $550m in the defamation trial in Connecticut. They alleged the right-wing radio host's misinformation led to a decade's worth of harassment and death threats. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-63237092 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post pegman Posted October 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2022 I don't think taking every red cent this vile creature has is good enough. He has to go on criminal trial and do a lengthy stretch in prison to make up for his despicable actions. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Berkshire Posted October 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2022 I understand Jones has managed to hide his millions. It was such an obvious ploy to escape paying court judgements. I hope the authorities can see through this and bleed this vile human being dry. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bluespunk Posted October 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 13, 2022 From linked article. “Jones broadcast himself watching Wednesday's verdict and scoffing at the court proceedings. He also appealed to his followers to make urgent donations, and pledged that the money would not be used towards his legal costs. "The money does not go to these people," he said. "It goes to fight this fraud and it goes to stabilise the company."

bendejo Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 You can be sure there are some slimy characters out there watching all this, doing cost/benefit analysis. With the cost reaching over $1 billion this sort of influencing does not come off as lucrative. Give him Time Magazine's Most Odious Man of the Year award. He should have everything of value he owns taken away and made a ward of the state, made to live in a public housing project* on a stipend, with strict policing on his spending, as in some areas of the US where people on public welfare have to deal with drop-in inspectors going through their closets etc. "Oh ho, what's this, a new jacket? How did you pay for it?" and so on. I don't think he has what it takes to go into exile, but I would suspect he has a honey pot somewhere. *preferably one with a high crime rate 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
