Jones has given up on chapter 11 bankruptcy (reorganization). No payments have been made to Sandy Hook families. Case will be converted to Chapter 7 bankruptcy (liquidation) in which non exempt assets would be sold. |

The article talks about infowars being sold, but it has no value (I assume) without Jones

Quoted: Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. View Quote Jones is an a hole but did he really cause damages to people in the billions? |

I always figured it would end up a 7, or at least that he'd want it to.
As a 13, he'd liquidate, then have to basically give whatever he did liquidate to the trustees. He'd then still be on the hook for the rest. With a 7, he's saying 'Im selling it all, thats all I have, I'm out of business and assets and we're calling it even at the end'. There's nothing stopping him for giving them literally nothing, some random assets, calling it good and then starting InfoCrusade.com the next day right where he left off. Entire lawsuit was a fucking scam. |

Eliminating the competition before November.
We're not even a Banana Republic anymore. We've jumped into straight communism 101. Not a peep from the MSM. |

What's going to happen when all those vitality pills flood the market for pennies on the dollar?

So his next move should be to pull an Al Sharpton and constantly run for office so he can live on campaign funds.

After fast and Furious and all the other stunts our government has pulled I’m really not sure he is not right.

Doesn't libel/defamation compensation require real damages as a result of any lie? What kind of damages could the sandy hook parents possibly have as a result, were people really taking Alex Jones' word over theirs to the point their careers were ruined or something? I haven't read the lawsuit but I'm pretty curious to hear the summary of the real costs that were incurred they are suing for.

Quoted: AJ was a liar who peddled BS conspiracy theories and supported Socialists when it was convenient. As a reminder, if Ukraine has lost that means the war is done, right? View Quote That's called a two-tier justice system. Cheer and take your victory lap, I guess, if that's what gets your boner going. Sooner or later, that system is going to be used on you, whether you understand that or not. |

Quoted: You don't understand. He hurt people's feelings. Do you not value people's feelings?! View Quote Not that the final judgment isn't disproportionate, but Alex Jones no doubt made it worse with his actions during the trial. He could have settled and paid way less, but instead he chose to turn it into a circus by acting like a clown. |

Quoted: AJ was a liar who peddled BS conspiracy theories and supported Socialists when it was convenient. As a reminder, if Ukraine has lost that means the war is done, right? View Quote See how right he has been over the last 30 years and how many “conspiracy theories” have been proven right, that’s not the own you think it. When did he support “socialists”. Ukraine is not going to regain the land/ tax base it has lost, so again, they lost, Z man will milk this as long and hard as he can, then he will flee after looting the national treasury. How much more they lose is all that is being determined. Z could save many lives by eating crow, but he has his heart set on retirement on that resort in Cyprus that you bought him with your tax dollars. I wonder who will get him, CIA or FSB… |

Quoted: Lol, leftists do that all day, every day. It's all they do. Their propaganda easily rivals that of anything the Third Reich came up with. I'm not noticing any of those reptilian scumbags getting popped with billion dollar money judgments. That's called a two-tier justice system. Cheer and take your victory lap, I guess, if that's what gets your boner going. Sooner or later, that system is going to be used on you, whether you understand that or not.

Quoted: Now you understand why the left has fallen in love with their new, shiny toy... extreme lawfare. They have figured out how to use the system against itself. The left cannot, and will not, tolerate beliefs, opinions, and positions contrary to their own. They are starting with the big fish. Eventually, they will use this model to attack anyone they don't like. These people actually call the America Flag hate speech. How much longer will it be before reciting the Pledge of Allegiance is a felony? Probably a lot sooner than we think. View Quote And conservativism did nothing to stop it, sold books and cruises and backstabbed anyone who wanted to fight.. |

Quoted: If your kids were murdered in a school shooting, and some left-wing loudmouth was accusing you of being a crisis actor, would that not bother you? Would you take legal action against them?

Does converting to Chapter 7 really change anything in the long run, since intentional torts like libel aren't normally dischargeable in bankruptcy?

My only issue is the same that most people have with it, the damages awarded were excessive to the extreme. Well beyond punitive.
