Judge to OK liquidation of Alex Jones’ Infowars to pay Sandy Hook judgement

Lauren Taylor

A FEDERAL BANKRUPTCY JUDGE IS SET TO APPROVE THE LIQUIDATION OF ALEX JONES’ INFOWARS MEDIA PLATFORM TO HELP PAY THE $1.5 BILLION JUDGMENT OWED TO SANDY HOOK VICTIMS’ FAMILIES.

FOR YEARS, JONES REPEATEDLY SAID ON HIS “INFO WARS” SHOW THAT THE 2012 SANDY HOOK SHOOTING WAS A “HOAX” – STAGED BY “CRISIS ACTORS” TO GET GUN CONTROL LEGISLATION PASSED.

THESE STATEMENTS LEAD TO JONES’ FOLLOWERS HARASSING AND THREATENING SANDY HOOK VICTIMS’ FAMILIES.

SEVERAL FAMILIES FILED DEFAMATION AND EMOTIONAL DISTRESS LAWSUITS AGAINST JONES – WHICH THEY WON. THE FAMILIES WERE AWARDED NEARLY $1.5 BILLION IN 2022.

IN THAT SAME YEAR, JONES AND HIS COMPANY FILED BANKRUPTCY PROTECTION.

JONES HAS SINCE ADMITTED THE SHOOTING WAS REAL.

THE AUCTIONS, SCHEDULED FOR NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER, WILL INCLUDE JONES’ INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND PHYSICAL ASSETS.

THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AUCTION ON NOVEMBER 13 INCLUDES TRADEMARKS, COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL, SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS, AND WEBSITES. PHYSICAL ASSETS AUCTION ON DECEMBER 10 COVERS COMPUTERS, VIDEO CAMERAS, AND STUDIO EQUIPMENT.

JONES WILL RETAIN HIS PERSONAL SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS, INCLUDING HIS X ACCOUNT WITH 2.8 MILLION FOLLOWERS.

THE AUCTIONS AIM TO ADDRESS THE MASSIVE $1.5 BILLION JUDGMENT AGAINST JONES, BUT THE ACTUAL AMOUNT THAT WILL REACH THE SANDY HOOK FAMILIES REMAINS UNCERTAIN. JONES’ PERSONAL ASSETS TOTALIS APPROXIMATELY $9 MILLION DOLLARS, AND BANKRUPTCY-RELATED EXPENSES ARE EXPECTED TO BE PAID FIRST.
