Judge Strips Bankruptcy Protections From Alex Jones – Orders Payment Of $1.5 Billion In Sandy Hook Damages

A Texas judge ruled Monday that InfoWars host Alex Jones cannot use bankruptcy to avoid paying $1.5 billion in damages awarded to families of those killed at Sandy Hook Elementary in December of 2012.

The ruling means that Jones will indeed be forced to pay whatever he has in cash or other valuable items in order to comply with the court ruling.

In his ruling, Houston Judge Christopher M. López wrote:

“Immediately to (i) allow the Sandy Hook Post-Trial Families’ Cases to continue to proceed to entry of final judgment and (ii) once judgments are entered, to allow appeals, if any, to proceed and the Sandy Hook Post-Trial Families to pursue, respond to and participate in any such appeals without further order of the Court.”

John Craven of News 12 spelled out other details of Judge López’s ruling.

JUST IN: Sandy Hook families may proceed with $1.5 billion in judgments against Alex Jones. A bankruptcy judge just approved an agreement to lift the automatic stay that went into effect when Jones filed for bankruptcy The families agreed to not pursue collection efforts yet

Judge will consider a pay raise for Jones on January 20 Jones’ attorneys say he needs his full salary to keep doing the “Infowars” show — the program where he claimed Sandy Hook was a hoax — so he can pay off the families Attorney Vickie Driver: “He’s just out of money”

Jones’ Attorney Vickie Driver: Jones has “lots of business strategies” to get his company back to profitability

For years now Jones has attempted to delay paying the money awarded to families he accused of being “crisis actors” and part of a government conspiracy to fabricate mass shootings in an attempt to impose gun restrictions across the United States.

But Jones and his lies have finally caught up with him and he’s beginning to realize that he may soon be forced to sell whatever belongings he has to satisfy the court judgements against him and his company.
