If he made payments of $100,000 per year at 0% interest, it will only take him 10,000 years to pay it off.
And Elon could drop that much and never feel it missing...
@@Doug8D3 You have no idea how money works if you believe that lol
A settlement would have been faster.
😂😂
@@Doug8D3 yeah he would say what was that? $1 billion I can make that in a week that’s what he would say!😂
“It’s not about the money, it’s about sending a message.” -The Joker -
It's also about defamation, putting people's lives at risk by your ignorant nonsense spread on media.
"J" is for Joker! It sure isn't for justice.
@@killerrabbit2693 he named person name ever reporting a story someone else wrote and only named 1 person 1 time never went to trial never got to face his accusers this is the biggest civil rights violation ever, jones didnt grow or profit from sandy hook but suprise suprise the whole uniparty went after him, his company will still be around and now it will be illegal to fire employees they will still all be paid just any profit gets taken jones only will get more famous for this and it shows the courts will violate rights if they dont like you, show me the trail for this and i'll quit the internet, all this case was, was deciding how much he owes not if he was guilty or innocence the judge said he was guillty before this case.
jones already filed bankruptcy this channel did zero research as did you/.
@@killerrabbit2693 you believe the lie, huh?
It also sets a legal precedence for people who are way more pragmatic than the Joker
WTF you get charged for talking now? This man should not be charged......charge the psychos that are physically harming people......
Nope. Sticks and stones have never done any proven damage. It's words that are the clear and present hurt.
“When you tear out a man’s tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you’re only telling the world that you fear what he might say.” -Tyrion Lannister
Excuse me? Is this a brainless attempt to defend the infamous statements of Alex Jones? Do you believe Sandy Hook was a fake perpetrated by "stunt midgets" posing as wounded/dying kids?
He's still allowed to talk. No one is barring him from saying anything. This is punishment for the lies he told and the harassment he encouraged.
@@thematman92He didn't encourage harassment. He reported a possible conspiracy. If it's illegal what he did then why are people sueing the government for these UFO whistle-blowers. 😂
I didn't see the judgment as being anything he could literally pay, I thought it was more about making sure he never makes a profit again.
That’s not how it works.
@@josephdale69 please explain to us how it works
welcome to the real world
True
@@AdroneZ1480 Amen.
So surprised at the amounts given from suing for personal matters yet when a major company or government gets fined its peanuts in comparison, WTF
I kind of depends on the state you're in, a lot of states in the US do have caps on punitive damages, and corporations lobby the government to pass these sorts of laws.
That being said, I would suggest watching the plaintiffs' testimonies. These people faced waves of harassment for years every time someone on Info Wars mentioned Sandy Hook families. They didn't seem to be in it for the money, but instead to make infowars have to shut down to stop the harassment.
Viox killed like 50,000 Americans and They payed like 4 B. The civil justice system is evil.
@@travistaylor5305 really not trying to imply that the US courts are a good thing, but that doesn't make what Alex Jones is doing ok.
@@aydieblake Freedom of speech is so important. I don’t see how slapping someone with a 1B$ bill doesn’t invalidate freedom of speech.
@@travistaylor5305 freedom of speech does not mean that you can say outrageous lies on air when it causes significant harm. Listen to the testimonies and stories of the parents, and see how you feel about the suit afterwards.
Similarly, you can't shout fire in a crowded theatre. Y'all should really do some research on what the first amendment actually says, because Alex already attempted to take this to higher courts based on his first amendment defense.
It was not designed for him to pay. It is to effort control over Jones as long as he is breathing.
The Globalists and George Soros finally got tired of Alex Jones Rhetoric 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This has gone into the realm of Idiocracy.
He will appeal this for the rest of his life. Those families won't even see close to that. This is just to fund Appeals Court practitioners salaries. The Judicial System is such a huge con.
Good they don't deserve money just because they feeling got hurt
He can't appeal unless he submits a bond for the almost a billion dollar verdict. So he might not even be able to afford to appeal.
@@josephj7908 This case is more than getting your feelings hurt...
For him to try to appeal, he will have to put the money into an account OR get a bond for insurance for that amount. The insured bond will need to be provided with any appeal. Without a bond insuring he can pay the amount, then he won't even be able to file any appeal.
Further complicating any appeal is that Alex INTENTIONALLY defaulted on the trial portion, so any question of liability or the trial itself are off the table for Alex. They will be summarily dismissed.
You are right, to award such an absurd amount just means they will never see a penny.
Simple ... That much amount of money will be held up in courts on appeals for years forever and never get paid..
The lawyers will get paid.
@@GoBooYourself Bobby knows where it's at
It should never be payed.
@@GQFJB
Do continue, why shouldn't it be paid..
That's not how it works. They'll get the money wether Jones wants to pay or not.
They just smoked the guy who gave us the inside look of Bohemian Grove, smh this is depressing
Dear Double RK: Links and data, please.
This is so typical American for us outsiders. 2030: suing people for $10 billion
We have some of the most lenient defamation laws in the world. Alex Jones was so egregious and lost because he didn't comply with court orders. He could have probably wiggled his way out of it honestly if he had better lawyers.
$2.75 trillion now

THANK YOU for the video. 🙏🏽

Yep they just wanna drain him
@@greendholia5206 let’s hope they do!!! He deserves a miserable life.
Good riddance
Surely alex is sooooo right lawyers would do it for free?
Makes you think.
It's about the parents of innocent children who were slaughtered that have been haunted and harassed for years so this man could make up the 800,000 a day. But continue to give him money I encourage you; the families deserve it.
Well, After listening to this interview, I have just one question: why are we still paying our bills?🙄
yep..
Explain your question, you'll find the answer.
So ya don’t sit in the dark eating spaghetti os🤷🏼♀️
😂 I know what you mean.
@@mariahgrimes207 exactly
It’s like giving 400 years in prison to someone found guilty 🥴
If the punishment is impossible to pay (or serve the time) then I see that as the legal system laughing at the victim. The victim deserves closure and recompence, not to serve as the joke for some judge.
@@donkellogg881 Aww poor baby.. So quickly to defend a fellow nut
@@donkellogg881 The problem is our society is built on monetary value, not morals. You really can not put a value on life. So courts try to show the outrage by over stating. It is like say I love you to the moon and back.. You can not place a value on love, but to the moon and back well that is slot of love. Alex only loves money, that is how he values everything so taking away Billions is the only way to have him see how much of a dispicable person he is.
@@donkellogg881 Jury. A jury decided the amount. The rubric they work off is set by state law.
Sure, but just because a person can't literally serve 400 years that doesn't mean they just let him go because the sentence is impossible.
From all the reporters on Law and Crime...Jesse Weber in my opinion the best in asking the important questions and tries to spread truth, instead of lies.
This is more of a message to
The masses they know he cant pay it
its a public lynching, they should have held the people actually doing harassment accountable. this is the opposite approach to the stolen valor incidents
let it be known harassing the victims of a school shooting is bad for business.
Thats crazy, So the government only gives you $110 - $300 a day when your falsely imprisoned over something you didn't do , Yet 1 billion in damages? crazy af he wont have the money to pay any of these people
Except this is a crime he did commit. We know he’s been lying about sandy hook for years.
I just hope this opens up litigation, and subsequent $1B damage verdicts, to large media companies. CNN, Fox, MSNBC have all done the same thing.
Meanwhile George bush gets to lie and kill millions 💀💀💀
@@Mr.Veridical I agree
@@Mr.Veridical THANK YOU! All of these people are the same and play this same dangerous game with 24/7 breaking news that have no 3rd party verification. So much for journalistic credibility, but yeah sue em all.
I never forget how the bankruptcy court assigned a trustee on my car accident and this guy after he kept me waiting almost 2 years and he pocketed $30,000. I just hope the bankruptcy case is dismissed and not assigned to a trustee.
uh-oh. Mark Bankston, plaintiff's attorney TX said in an interview, "a federal bankruptcy judge & a U.S. trustee will oversee the financial scrutiny of Infowars."
The trustee being a company owned by Jones’s family. Though the bankruptcy courts are trying to ensure his family isn’t the trustee. Also his bankruptcy is only filed. He isn’t officially bankrupt
It's not a crime to be wrong about something.
Massive violation of the 8th amendment, even if the allegations had been proven in court.
The hole constitution was thrown out in court
Insurance pays 5 million for wrongful death. They billed Alex like he killed 200 kids. Plus charged 400 million for attorneys fees?!?! Ridiculous
It's about sending a message and stopping him from ever hurting anyone again
@@mysticDchimp Except the law is not about "SENDING MESSAGES" it's about moral justice. If you people want, you can persecute your political opponents for the next few years but you're REALLY not gonna like it when the people with nothing to lose decide to start engaging in terrorism and violent reprisal because they have literally nothing to lose.

@warlorrrd yeah i wonder where these lunatics are going to storm next?
They really don't expect him to.
How can he? He has nowhere near enough money to pay it off. He's bankrupt! And as such, he has also effectively been sentenced to death or life as a homeless man. The latter may or may not be worse than the former.
@@klaaturivera3746 Maybe they should put you in jail for saying that.
he shouldn't and i'm glad to hear he won't be.
@@mroselli7482 I know he can't even if he wanted to.
@@linkskywalker5417 why would he want to???
That's a setup, to silence him. Anyway, god know everything.
Its obvious they want to silence him any way possible, that fine is absurd and has nothing to do with reality
Why would you want to listen in the first place? Do you believe the moon landing is fake too just like Alex Jones?
It was a joke. He won't pay a dime and I don't blame him...
He has the right to say what he want free speech if he had 1 billion awarded then CNN and MSNBC owes BILLIONS
Those families will never get their money 😂
why are you smiling you scum
The families can execute on Jones' assets including any assets from Free Speech Systems.
He already has moved a chunk of money overseas, I am sure.
Mexico.
@@selecttravelvacations7472 Panama.
He has no money as he said be broke and filed for bankruptcy.
You think he didn’t already have money over seas
@@rachelwalsh6116 Jones says his company is 50 million in debt. who are they in debt to? another company that Alex Jones has sole control over, lol. it's just a scam. Jones has lied and scammed the courts at every step of the way in this case. He lied so brazenly that his own attorneys fired him as a client... several times.
Forensic auditors estimate he's got around 280 million in cash and assets. He pulls in 50 million a year or more in revenue, and he's hugely wasteful with his spending. He also refuses to pay any money to help raise his own children. He sucks.
Fortunately for Jones, the state of Texas loves to protect criminals and conmen, so long as they are rich and they put their money into Texas real estate.
He will never have to pay that amount of damages.
More than likely, if he is made to pay, it will be far less than the judgement entered into the records.
The appeals court just sealed their employment for centuries to come.
The judge ensured that with the absurd amount awarded
Interesting, thanks for covering this.
He won’t pay a dime
What proof do you have😂😂
Hopefully he lives in the streets
Coming from Portugal, where this news already arrived, thank you for an unbiased and interesting answer! 🙏🏾

@@criptik5208 his followers harassed the family members of victims of the massacre. Threatening to harm them. Harassment is against the law. Threat of violence is also against the law. Since Alex Jones caused it he is responsible.
NONE of that is true nor proven nor even introduced in this defamation case that does NOT meet any of the requirements. Shame on this channel/propaganda.
Yer right..
He should sue the "View" for a Trillion.
For what? Did they hurt his feelings?
@@southstar9931 The "View" is a Propaganda Slandering Network.
@@southstar9931 Isn't that what he was blamed for doing and got sued for a billion?
@@southstar9931 technically he is being sued for causing feelings to be hurt
Now he has to pay 1 billion 🤣🤣🤣🤣. What a 🤡. He lost all of his fortune 😭
This not a conversation. He will NEVER pay off the 965.
OJ simpson never paid anything
If I recall: In Virginia, he would have to put a bond on the amount of what was awarded in damages for the appeal (I remember that from the Amber Heard defamation lawsuit that Johnny Depp won). So I wonder if Texas and Connecticut also require such a bond. And considering the bankruptcy of Infowars and likely also Alex Jones, it means that if such a bond was mandatory, he will not be able to file for appeal unless someone "sympathetic" to his cause starts bankrolling him.
There was no damage done. He literally spoke his opinion
@@mr.joshua204 Yeah, you can, as a celebrity, speak your opinion and cause damage. Nice fail there.
Doesn't matter if he appeals or not, they won't see a penny.
Also if I was Alex I’d put the company in someone else’s name and claim bankruptcy give them that big finger and still live rich
When are they going to do this to cnn and fox? They lie all the time….
They all do lol
Sue them then. You have every legal right to do that. If you can prove damages and if they have been lying about your kids being murdered go ahead and sue them.
Defamation law suit re: Dominion Voting System which station is that (OAN?)? Rudy Giuliani, Sydney Powell, Alex Jones can all hang out together in the Negative Billionaire's club

i bet the ppl who went to that island feel some relief seeing him destroyed for daring to question narratives.
the ppl that do not like jones and think this is right and just in these comments, are why epsteins, maxwell's etc can engage in human traffiking for so long.
enabled by an entitled and niave american consumer
_" the guy brought epstein to light."_
No he didn't.
Yeah, he never mentioned Epstein until it had been in all the media. If you can find a clip of him talking about Epstein before about 2018 it's like the holy grail.
Commentary like this is why I watch Barnes and Rekitta.
Who??
The only winners lawyers laughing all the way to the bank 😄
The parents never cared about money...they cared to get justice to deter people from spreading lies for profit.
"Maybe they are not looking for money" 11:06 , haha, that cracked me up!
We all know this is about the money. The lawyers are looking to collect $323 million
Fire clip subbed 🔥
i'd have like to have heard more about the fed ex box of cash shipmen story
It’s interesting how people only understand that free speech doesn’t include defamation when it comes to people they like or who share the same political opinions. The world almost unanimously agreed that Amber Heard deserved to get sued but when it comes to Alex, some of these same people are like “It’s scary how they are coming from our free speech.” Like keep that same energy with Amber Heard and anyone being sued for defamation then.
This isn't even remotely comparable.
@@sebastienholmes548 You’re right. It’s so much worse and probably the sickest lies one can concoct.
@@StefunnyStrange amber herd physically assaulted people.
You are so right. Add to that there were more people supporting Johnny Depp and obviously don’t care about slaughtered children. I think Amber Heard and Alex Jones would make a great match. Two losers cut from the same cloth!
Wow, definitely nothing to question here!
The sad part is the lawyers will want their cut first. Their attorneys fees are $323 million. What do they charge, $100K per hour?
He's not going to pay one red cent, and why should he? He doesn't owe them anything.
That judge and the cops with the FBI and the parents need to pay
I believe that the family wouldn't mind not getting money as long as Jones doesn't have any.
His other business is not part of the lawsuit and can't be touched. He will continue to make money
Maybe get Robert Barnes on to get a more accurate version of what really went on rather than weak, woke versions of a kangaroo court that virtually gagged him from speaking truth to the accusations.
He had every opportunity to testify but refused after the first day. He only likes to talk when he can control the narrative and no one can rebut him. This was no kangaroo court. He lost on default because he refused to comply with discovery orders. How anyone defends this human garbage is beyond me.
How does money equate emotional damage. The damage is done and money won’t fix it.
Jones would already know of the Cook Island option and would have been advised and given a contact 'investor' long ago. I know people who have had judgements, they also move assets into the names of others.
That judgment was like spraying a billion bullets into an already dead man. Over done and unjust imo.
He is going to have to cut back to just 4 cheeseburgers a day.
😂😂😂, me personally I think he’ll have to go to negative cheeseburgers 🍔.
He won't be able to afford his blood pressure pills either 🤪
even Wimpy could pay you back on Tuesday
He needs to maintain his Turbo Dinosaur Power!
@@rascallyrabbit8548 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I had no idea that Alex Jones went to such Great lengths to discredit the victim's family members. He should definitely be held accountable and I hope that they get something out of him.
@J T From what I understand he literally harassed the victim's parents and that's not acceptable but you're entitled to your opinion
You’re a sick person
They sort of discredited themselves. I know that sounds cold but there it is. Many of them have told bold face irrefutable lies. He just took advantage of that and helped propagate an already debunked theory to an idiotic fan base he knew would believe it. No different than what we see many politicians do.
No crime was committed by AJ. The default was a prosecution strategy to make it impossible for AJ to put up a defense.
He was not charged with a crime. This was a civil lawsuit with no "prosecutors", simply plaintiffs' lawyers and respondents' lawyers. The default judgment was enacted by the judge, not "the prosecution" because AJ refused to comply with discovery orders. If someone sues you and rather than put up a defense, you refuse to comply with court orders, you lose by virtue of default. Not complicated.
@@susanb4213 He complied. That was the strategy. They asked for things that didn't exist, like an "SH marketing strategy" just so they could default him. You can see they have every conceivable financial document, communication, and even employee search data. So it's obvious that's what happened.
The best remedy is to leave the courts and the COPS and the lawyers Out of it .
Simply. The lawsuit will be dropped. It's a kangaroo court. Jones will not have to pay anything. And I hope he goes after the people who did this.
if he was in a real court with constitutional judges and jurors, he still may have lost the case but, he would not have been made an example of and the settlement would not be as ridiculously steep
He won't pay a red cent. Trial will be thrown out.
03:42
First thought: How many wrinkles can you fit on one face?
Second thought: I can't believe there's a human brain behind that mess.
Why does he have to pay a FBI agent 90 mill? He never spoke of him?
💩💩💩💩💩
He owes all of us a million billion dollars
He could've argued his case against the FBI agent if he had produced any of his financial records and website analytics information during the discovery process, but he didn't produce documents during discovery. That's kind of a big no no, which his lawyers definitely knew, so he was found guilty by default.
The government doesnt like people like alex jones dude knew about epstein 10 years before anyone else
To send the message that you are not to question the deep state narrative
In CT punitive damages are limited to attorney fees.
No
No. There's no cap in Connecticut. That's why this was such a consequential verdict
They didn't receive the big money in Punitive. That's where the TX jury screwed up. These jurists knew to award in the compensatory section under defamation. That section has no cap.
I think an appellate court will reduce it but still have a significant amount for each family.
@@michaelcorcoran8768 Slight correction -- There is not a cap on CUTPA punitive damages. Other punitive damages are aggressively capped at attorney's fees in CT. None of that matters for this, however, because the entire $965M judgement so far is entirely compensatory damages. Punitive damages have yes to be assessed.
No There isnt, Wow people really have no clue how law works.
It is absurd and funny. The plaintiffs will not receive a penny from the defendant. It will in fact turn into a joke of the year,
far from reality.
Feel so sorry for him.
Are you serious or is this sarcasm
@@johncook6428 if I were saying it, id be serious.
If you had a 💩 opinion would you like to have everything you have taken from you, or the ability to make a living? If your answer isnt NO, you'd be lying.
This just sets a bad precedent. If they do this for what myself and other deemed to be a 💩 opinion, what makes you think they wont do this to someone who has what those who make laws deem to be a 💩 opinion?
Why bother charging him with a number that’s recognizable?
Why not just say, “you owe them scheventymojilliotyzilliontygajilliontymomilliontyquadrillionplex dollars!”
Firstly, if justice is what it’s supposed to be there will be a retrial with Jones given the Constitutional rights he was denied. For the time being he will be in the appeal process for several years and doing his show as usual. Secondly he is bankrupt and wasn’t permitted to say so in that circus hearing. If in the end he doesn’t get a retrial then what he has left will be sold off which won’t add up to more than a couple million dollars and none of the families will see much, especially with the lawyers taking their customary 1/3 cut.
The lawyers are the only ones that will make out with millions while the families might get the scraps
@@tmilesffl There are no millions, Free Speech Systems is bankrupt
He does have valid points though, there is always more to these stories and there is always state gov coverups
So killing a bunch of elementary school kids that’s a made up story? Mass shootings are made up stories?
He called a shooting fake and every family member actors. That is wrong and makes him a conspiracy theorist
Congratulations on demonstrating why the consideration of future harm was so high.

No appellate court will allow a default judgment in these incredible damage amounts. Appellate courts have complete disdain for default judgments and they care very little what brought the parties to that point.
A default judgment is a sanction and it’s so manifestly unfair that most appellate courts will kick it back and force the parties to engage in a real trial.
How does this make sense. Jones ain’t mentally all together. But he’s not a mass murderer. Could they sue the school for not protecting there kids? It’s not like this event is uncommon in the states!
Ppl should not be gleeful over doing this to a man. And yes I think the families want his money
For what Jones did to these families?! Have you followed the story? Yah, I'm gleeful.
says you, I am positively estatic over here.
@@alfredeneuman6966 He did pretty much nothing. He said something they didn't like boo hoo. What other people do is not his fault, he didn't order anyone to do anything. I support Jones in this 100% and just see this as greed and political games to show they can silence wrong think
@@bell5082 Sure there is freedom of speech and I agree with that. Jones falsely claimed the Sandy Hook Elementary school attack that left more than two dozen people dead, including 20 children, was a hoax. It was not. Greiving parents not only had to deal with that but threats from others who believed Jones' lies. One court ordered Jones to pay $965 million, a Texas jury 50 million, and it looks like there is yet another trial upcoming as well. There is no such thing as a false opinion or idea - however, there can be a false fact, and these are not protected under the First Amendment. Jones will pay the piper. So my question is, do you believe what Jones said about the Sandy Hook Massacre is true?
Stop letting rich people put off the effects of litigation with their money
they actin like he killed the kids himself
Wouldn’t he just get the death penalty/life in prison then?
Worse. He profited off their suffering.
They aint suffering if theyre already dead 😂😂😂
That is sick. That number doesn't make any sense. So you say maybe something is a conspiracy and you can no longer own assets?
What do "U.S. Ministry of Truth" say about this? 😂😂😂😂😂
-We all know what Orwell thought about this.....
Absolutely ridiculous 💯
An utterly ridiculous amount, and I say that as someone none too impressed with Alex Jones. I accept some defamation, but the amounts should be in the hundreds of thousands, not millions, let alone a billion. This is studid, and I hope the plaintifs do not get so much. A million or two is okay, but this is greedy nonsense.
They own the feds and the courts. The dems made a massive example out of him.
Our "justice system" is fuxing joke.
I don't understand how it was able to Sue Alice Jones for he was at his business making these accusations.
Look at that man, sitting there, rubbing his hands together, thinking "ooooh, $120M!" ... why you greedy ... you're going to be lucky to see $10,000 in the next ten years. 🙄
People are hilariously misinformed about the differences in state laws and cases that are about collecting money.
In this case, they will receive money but it will be a long time before they do and it is not going to be close to a billion dollars.
As for the state of Texas, those people probably already received something from the way Texas laws are set up.
I'm from Texas.
Texas is strange when paying out.
They literally will try to navigate a way to give compensation to the victims if need be but they will not take everything away.
It's almost as if they want you to pay. 🤔
Lol
This is like fining someone a million dollars for jay walking. The only thing it says is that the entire trial was a joke, and not at all about justice.
yes! now make msm pay for all their lies
I'm glad the dollar amount is waking people up to this.
Who is getting paid? What difference does it make? A free and public press democrats don't like has been shut down
He essentially is working for this families for the rest of his life
You are not very smart if you think the families are going to get a single dollar from him!
Obviously, you didn’t watch the video 🤣
