Claiming an untruth, walking into court, and then claiming that you lied and it was all psychosis, but then leaving the court and going right back to the lies, should be a crime.
During the Sandy Hook trial, they played recent clips of him mocking the judge in front of said judge. It convinced jurors that he had little sense of empathy or responsibility.
Sickening to see Alex Jones crying "they hate our children" after making a fortune off of people who actually lost their children to senseless violence
Yeah I was thinking they hate you not your children. It’s not their fault you tried to benefit on their suffering and endangered them by saying it was a conspiracy and encouraging others to rise against them.
Its as if they conspire to find the most ironic and/or projective line of B.S. every time. It's not even a meme, just a fact. They're 100% guilty of whatever theyre accusing. Thats how they're so confident.
Aside from the main reasons “they hate our children” is ironic, never forget he forgot the ages of his own kids and then blamed it on a big ol’ bowl of chili at his own divorce hearings
I mean my parents have gotten my brother and my names mixed up since we were very young, and to this day when I visit he'll sometimes call me by my brother's name. He corrects himself immediately but still. Slips like that seem understandable to me. Alex Jones is still an unrepentant monster who deserves far worse than he's getting though, that I will not argue against.
This is the silliest stuff... A lot of people forget their own age... It is not uncommon to accidentally forget your own kids ages (years can blend together)... This is one of the "Oh, bad guy is bad, so now I'll make everything he did bad!" If you are arguing he is bad or it is "ironic" then you should also argue that it is bad or "ironic" that almost everyone does it. Big difference is most people don't do it publicly...
@@SioxerNikitayou're right that slip ups happen Now where they SHOULDN'T happen is in a courtroom where a judge is deciding if you'll ever see your kids again A caring parent usually makes sure to remember details for that. And even if a slip up does happen, you should apologize and correct yourself instead of making a dumb excuse everyone can see straight through
@@mrroboshadow Yes, they shouldn't. Also, you SHOULD apologize and correct yourself, but making a dumb excuse is what a lot ordinary people do. Point being, the whole berate the guy for what is really bad, instead of berating him for something that'll make ordinary parents feel like shit parents.
I suppose what's crazy to me is that there's just no punishment for this stuff? Like Jones can just blatantly defy a court, siphon money in the open, still keep doing the thing he was being sued for, and just nothing happens! The judge just goes "here's a piece of paper saying he owes you 8 squintillion. He's hidden a lot of assets though, so see if you can get $20 off him before the appeals court reduces it to $10. I'm also going to ignore that he's driven a different sports car to each hearing." Insane, absolutely insane
Because he didn't commit any criminal acts, this is purely civil court. They can't arrest him for refusing to pay a civil fee, they can only fine him more. He's going to have to do some REALLY shady shit in this case to ever see jailtime. They can't imprison him simply for WORDS he said, hence why they had to hire multi-million dollar lawyers and take him to civil court.
@@SunbearSmoke you're not wrong at all. I just feel that a court process should be respected, even if it's a civil court you know? Like a law that stops you being deliberately obtuse in court, so that if you deliberately behave badly in a civil trial then the judge has criminal options...
@@SunbearSmoke no wonder rich people get away with all their crimes, what they're doing is barely even illegal. As long as you hire the hitman, and go through enough layers, all you did was words so you'll just pay some small amount of money and be ok. Crazy world we live in
@karolusmagnus3992 Wrong example there. Hiring a hitman is actually a federal offense with a minimum prison sentence of 10 years.If the target person is hurt but still alive, it's 20 years. If the targeted person dies, then the sentence is life in prison or the death penalty along with a fine that can go up to $250,000.
"These people hate our children." said the man that knowingly and deliberately spread harmful lies about children who were victims of a horrible event.
So what? he didnt kill the kids why are you all pretending that what he did is on the same level? No even worse cause no one would ever sue anyone billions over actual murder.
I hope you won't be offended if I offer a gentle correction, but although Alex Jones is physically mature, he is neither intellectually nor emotionally. Thus, it would be more accurate to call him a "man-child" than a "man".
Don't forget he spread those wanton lies in attempt to perpetuate the issue that was killing kids, it lead to an atmosphere of literal daily mass shootings that he has no shame over. Those aren't even the shootings he directly sent his audience to do at specific hospitals that he should rot in prison for
looks like the whole country was set up as a tax dodge for rich people.. they didnt do the fighting for it so much though... spanish powder and french guns and soldiers
The worst part is that these Families lost something money can never replace. All Jones did was just make them hurt more and it's only right he finally see consequences, it's a shame he doesn't suffer worst for it.
A guy who constantly pleads poverty while owning at least 5 Rolexes worth 6 figures each. There is nothing bad that can happen to him where he doesn't deserve it.
@@RipliWitaniit has plenty of authority but prison time isn't typically one of them. What they can do is seize anything and everything he owns to pay off the debts.
@@mwperk02 Eh, that was going to happen anyways. The issue in this case is the judgement is more than the value of all his money and assets combined, and the penalties for his misconduct in civil court are generally monetary, making them functionally meaningless. To a man who already got the worst monetary judgement in history (and who believes he can hide funds and assets in his parents' companies), it likely means nothing to him that he may face some fines. That said civil violations can theoretically become criminal if he makes some particularly egregious moves so we'll see.
No shit! We can easily forgive leaders like George Bush, Dick Cheney, Hillary Clinton, and others of being literally responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis, Afghanis, and Libyans. But to spread a false conspiracy about the Sandy Hook tragedy? That’s a line we must not allow to be crossed! Jones should be imprisoned for the rest of his natural life for his hurtful speech-and even after that!

After watching some segments on fox news I've learned that your not poor as long as you own a smart phone, microwave, freezer, tv or any other "luxury" items
Oh, dang, my low income apartment I'm in due to being severely disabled has most of those pre-installed. Guess I'm not poor after all despite being 50% below the poverty line in my area! Thanks Fox News!
After watching some segments on CNN, you can be poor while: Having the newest smart phones A large expensive Laptop, specifically Macbooks Living in a nice apartment in an expensive city Wearing Luxury cloth brands I'm also pretty sure there is more context to both of these statements... but it is always great to just "make a simple statement" to make the other side look terrible. We could play this game all day long and make any side look bad...
@@SioxerNikita in regards to the luxury brand stuff there is actually a trend within younger generations where they will bankrupt themselves to buy luxury brands to fit in. Some people even take out loans for this stuff. Yes they are being wildly irresponsible with their money but they also leave themselves un able to heat their place bc they are actually poor, and they save up money for pointless luxury
It's worse than that, he refused to participate in discovery and repeatedly sent in corporate representatives to depositions who did no research into anything and could not answer any questions. He refused to participate and was sanctioned repeatedly and then defaulted.
He doesn't need to....rich people get away with crime...in the end, when this is all over, he'll continue his career making millions off his conspiracy theories....nothing much has changed in America since OJ..
Pretty human to want to protect your own. That's why we have an external justice system and we don't just rely on people's family and friends keeping them in check to maintain law and order. We expect people to not be able to remain objective when it comes to self-interest and the interests of their loved ones. It is why so many areas of life have laws and regulations to address conflict of interest issues.
Usually I can tolerate this level of judicial tedium, because the law is incredibly complex, but something about the way this is unfolding is making me sick. Shut the show down, sell his shit, and throw him in prison. Enough is enough.
Seems like money laundering, perjury, and contempt of court could be criminal charges levied against Jones if our court system had any real teeth against rich and powerful scumbags like him.
It takes time. There isn't even anything criminal proven yet, there will be investigations into misconduct likely but it could be years, potentially upwards of a decade or more before anything clear cut happens
It's very hard with very many hoops to jump through to hit people with financial crimes, otherwise it would happen way more. A system by the rich for the rich. The only taboo is getting caught, which this dum-dum may just have done.
The depravity of first defaming, then encouraging the harassment of the people whose own children were murdered in an act of horrific violence simply staggers the imagination.
Robbie Parker's six year old daughter, Emilie, was murdered at Sandy Hook, and then we saw him laughing, smiling, and fake-crying during a CNN presser only a handful of hours afterwards.
and when consequences actually start to hit him, he tries to cry and say, "they hate my kids!!" trying weaponize his emotions and the fact that he has kids for sympathy or some shit? does he have any dignity? did he ever _have any?_
I used to think that. Then my dad took me aside and said (and I’m paraphrasing a very long conversation here so bear with me) “ I’m a Republican. it’s just that over the last 20 years religious fanatics co-opted my party. To me being a Republican means being fiscally responsible and not paying for all these government programs because we’re in massive debt to China. That’s it. No fear mongering no religious causes” And I said” Wow, Dad … I still think that things like food stamps and Social Security are valuable government programs. But that is very, definitely a valid point that I can understand and respect someone being concerned about and disagreeing with me over.”
@@Aschwartz14 This fiscal conservative argument has always been BS tho. Not only is your pops misleading you about the difference between the national debt vs deficit. Every conservative president since Reagan has skyrocketed the deficit, while every Democrat since Clinton has DRASTICALLY lowered the deficit. This is publicly available knowledge.
America: The only country where someone can use their media platform to build a harassment campaign against the grieving patents of murdered children, and face zero consequences.
You are not a bad person for taking an extra minute at work. I know it may seem obvious, but personally I have needed people to tell me that sometimes. You are not a bad person for taking an extra minute at work.
@@amandadeloff4278 At my old job I got scheduled for 7-and-a-half-hour shifts (and even sometimes 7-hours-and-45-minutes long shifts) to get around Minnesota's laws that require extra break time (Two 15-minute paid breaks or one half-hour unpaid break) for a shift that's scheduled for 8+ hours). You bet your ass I took four five-minute bathroom breaks every shift, minimum.
This. Whenever someone points this out in so many words, it triggers something in me. My only child passed away in 2016. That was hard enough, and his death wasn’t due to violence, like in the the Sandy Hook victims. He is still very relevant to me and if people were to publicly deny his existence, that would be like another death: first to my child’s presence but then a death to his past. There are not words enough to describe the depravity of empathy one must have to do this.
Thats not what happened, he talked about another dudes conspiracy theory. Then 2 days later said that theory was false. Thec Court didnt let him defend him self.
@@tzoninghard2425 He refused to tell the courts all the details that he was obliged to divulge, because he was a hiding a lot. So they gave a default judgement. It's his own fault.
@@tzoninghard2425 There is quite a difference between "court didn't let him defend himself" and "default judgement" He had all the opportunities do defend himself and cooperate with discovery. He decided not to. That was the strategy he decided on. There is a limit on the amount of chances you get in the legal system, and he ran out of 'em.
I've never seen someone quadruple down on slander and libel. That guy had years to reverse course. No sympathy from me and the money should be clawed back from his family too.
Rudy going after the Atlanta election workers after losing in court, & tr*mp dealing E. Jean Carroll *again* after being Found civilly liable both come to mind. But quadrupling? That may just be Jones - so far.
@@geraldmartin7703Agreed. Everyone working for Jones’ rotten company should lose their jobs, and all of the money and assets in those companies should go to paying off the judgements.
Yet someone on Twitter I replied with called this a mistake on Jones' part. As I told him, no mistake is deliberate like repeatedly calling victims crisis actors.
I'm not a lawyer, and only took a few J-school classes as electives, but something that's worth remembering when you talk about his case: It is very difficult to prove defamation in US courts even when compared to other Common Law countries like the UK, and if Jones had actually complied with the process, there's a non-zero chance he walked out of that courtroom with either symbolic damages or no liability at all. This is what happens when you thumb your nose at the system.
You are that it was hard in the US. I remember Johny Depp has to switch tactic in his defense because proving that Amber Heard defame Johny was an uphill battle. Instead the legal team went for unorthodox way of establishing that Amber Heard was not trustworthy by focusing about her lies that could be proven in courts. Basically the strategy was by showing the person was a liar and hid the truth, she must have act in reckless disregard of the truth and with actual malice toward Depp.
But, if he complied with the process, it would have shown documentary evidence on how well he knew what he was doing was naked lying and defrauding to capture trigger-happy-morons.
The gall, audacity and hypocrisy of this man crying "they hate our children" while blatantly stating that the Sandy Hook School shooting never happened and that the grieving parents were paid actors is infuriating, rage inducing and if I had been in front of him when he said that I would have thrown hands, consequences be dammed. How dares he?!
I watched the documentary The Truth vs. Alex Jones last night and it's heartbreaking the hurt he caused for his own personal gain and his lack of remorse. I'm Irish but i met a lady from a town close to where the shooting happened and she described to me in vivid detail how awful the events of that day and the days after were due to Jones' conspiracy theories. Truly a despicable character.
@@NottoriousGGReading comprehension, my guy. It's to let readers know that he's not an American citizen and so his frame of reference is as an outsider looking in, but still has an acquatainance with deeper knowledge of the shooting that took place that day.
@@NottoriousGGAgain, reading comprehension. Where @arcturionblade1077 lives or was born is irrelevant to the claims that @paulomartins1008 originally made. You are not very good at this.
I mean he still hasn't paid anything and he's still rich even if the money's in someone else account under a diffrent name. Civil Cases suck. Wish it were a criminal case.
No because this isn't a criminal case it's a civil case. Jail was never going to happen. Defamation cannot get you in jail to the best of my knowledge, it doesn't matter if you earn 20k a year or 200 million a year. There is absolutely inequality in our justice system but this kind of misinformation does not help.
@@Shenaldrac There really _should_ be some things that get you jail time if you do them in civil court. He's just siphoning off money and showing clear contempt of court, and for some reason there's nothing that can be done about it???
@@AzureGreatheart Of course things can be done about it! Just not being sent to prison, because none of what he's done afaik is something that caries the potential for prison time. But he can face fines, be found in contempt of the court, etc. Feel free to opine that not enough of those measures have been leveraged against him; I certainly do. But not everything can or should be capable of being met with time in prison.
I was injured as a firefighter and incurred massive debt as I went through a multitude of surgeries over several years that ultimately resulted in me declaring bankruptcy. With the exception of my auto loan that I was current on most of my debt were medical bills save for maybe $4k in credit card debt. So, basically, I was small fish. I wasn’t making big money by any means nor did I have considerable assets to my name. Anyway, I say all this because my bankruptcy attorney made it abundantly clear that it’s fraudulent to hide assets or misrepresent any debt to the court. My mom had actually loaned me money so I had listed her as a creditor because the attorney had said once I file bankruptcy I can’t show any preference to one creditor or another - even family. To see this engorged asshole blatantly committing fraud to avoid court ordered financial penalties for his heinous actions is beyond the pale. I am so fed up with a two tiered system where wealthy people get their own special privileges in the courts and can drag things out for years.
I would really love it if the judge could just say "Sir, you can't just conveniently become bankrupt right as you have to pay over 1 billion dollars out to families that you have slandered and harrased about their dead children for over 10 years."
Whats so crazy about this case is Jones has been acting in bad faith for years in this case, yet there is no apparent level of subterfuge that allows the court to threaten the bad actor with imprisonment.
@@SunbearSmoke Isn't perjury a criminal offense? He hasn't been convicted of that, but with the amount of times he has lied under oath he should have at least been charged. Also, if someone disobeys court orders, the judge can hold them in contempt of court and issue measures to force them to comply, including imprisonment.
@@joeg5414some lies? You know he went well beyond that right? He doxxed one of the parents addresses live on air and has had unhinged people stalking them.
@@Caedus696 Still 1.5 billion is excessive. Yes, Jones is a complete moron, but it's hard to substantiate the claim that those people were harmed worth 1.5 billion dollars. Think about it this way, when an airline crashes and kills people, the actual deaths of family members only pays off a few million dollars per person. In the eyes of the law, a person's life isn't worth more than that. Yet because everyone hates Alex Jones, the system is turned into a weapon against him, and a witch hunt initiated to utterly destroy him. Lies are bad, having people stalk you is bad, having threats made against you is bad. But hell, I'll happily take all of those for a million bucks in my bank. Maybe even a hundred thousand. No way is it worth 1.5 billion dollars in damages.
Now i wish that Americans would apply that to the supreme Court's recent decision to place the President completely above the law and follow that line of thinking to its logical conclusion. If this court is permitted to continue in this way the Republic is dead. It may already be.
@@Raiku49 I know, right? How the hell is it justice to fine soneone more money for floating a crazy conspiracy theory than any corporation has EVER been fined for knowingly killing people?
Wait I heard that one. It's hard to keep track of his gibberish sometimes. But that one is actually kinda funny. The metal image I mean not Katrina itself.
I remember seeing reports that Jones siphoned hundreds of millions of dollars out quite some time ago from all the bogus supplement sales. His whole financial history should be investigated in depth and he should give every penny to his name, including money that went to his parents or anyone else, until he is homeless and begging for forgiveness. He is committing fraud and worse, some of the parents had to move almost a dozen times and others committed seppuku (not alive any longer). He should also be charged in the deaths as bullying people to death is literally torture.
So in summary, he’s been entirely successful in skirting the judgements and has retained the majority of his money and will see virtually no personal consequences
The conspiracy theorists need those little blue pills and nureotropics to make their brain work good. And probably creatine and pre-workout despite not ever actually working out.
It's sad because this funds his ability to continue spewing his BS and we'd like to think people aren't that gullible. He's just the latest in a long line of successful hucksters and televangelists and all their ilk. Saddest thing? It's easier to fool people than to get them to admit they've been fooled.
It's Bugs Bunny's first law of comedy: Bad things happening to unlucky people by chance is tragic. Bad things happening to bad people as a result of their own misdeeds is hilarious.
What makes him a terrible person? Throwing an act and selling overpriced supplements (that by the work, but they're overpriced like supplements usually are)?
Nah, I agree. Luxury products that are only luxurious in name are money sinks for the stupid or desperate. If there's a better quality brand out there for a lesser price, the only reasons for buying the inferior product are ignorance, or a want for status from others who also value selling price over substance. Rolex WAS great, when they were not only the most expensive, but also the absolute top quality.
Thanks for breaking all this down. I’ve been following for years and it’s insanely impressive u summed all this up and made the law easy to digest in 25min. HT to u.
Yeah he thought lying, cheating and concealing his assets would let him screw his victims out of actually getting anything and he could continue living as normal like nothing happened. Turns out the consequences of our actions are a bitch
That has been his spiel for a long time: - to his followers he proudly boasts that he's "the real deal" and everything is genuine. - to judges and lawyers he tries to sell that it's all an act. - when that fails, all of a sudden he has "mental problems" and argues that he can't be held accountable. The guy's a charlatan and even his ex-wife called out his BS as being just that: BS.
it's not only the loss of a child, but the horrific terrorizing that Jones's followers did to the parents and families. Fearing for their lives, moving constantly, losing their jobs. that one man can cause such horror without being in jail... odd thing about Texas, the governor who okay'd the cap on financial judgements, supposedly (I need to check further) still collects a large amount of money annually for when he became paralyzed on a jog by a falling tree or limb a very long time ago.
Hearing him whine about wanting to 'stop these people' makes me think the families who lost their children and dealt with his lies surely wanted to stop him. You deserve every bit of this accountability.

@@jonahfalcon1970 He knows. Stop giving him any benefits of a doubt. He is the most grifting grifter. Everyone who speaks to him off camera tells you he is acting
What has he done that warrants being thrown in prison? Being a conspiracy theorist isn't a crime. As a consequence of his bollocks regarding the mass shooting, he's paying the price for that, literally.
The only thing more sickening than Jones' actions is that the worst that will happen to him is bankruptcy. Surely his disgusting and chronic abuses should constitute criminal liability at some point.
Because Jones is a conman. He's "poor" when needs to be sympathetic to suckers, and "rich" when he needs it as tool to get people to live vicariously through his success.
He doesn't have a single ounce of regret for what he's done. He's upset that he got in trouble, but he'll never be sorry for the horrible things he's said and done. Even if they take every penny of assets he has and all his supporters turn on him, he will never consider that what he did was wrong. If he feels like he can get away with it, he will absolutely do it again.
Hurty words and being an a-hole shouldn’t be worth billions of dollars and ruination though. This is completely disproportionate and the psychos cheering it should be careful what they wish for.

"Anytime anyone brings up Alex Jones it is important that they also bring up that Alex thinks he is fighting the literal Christian devil from space" - Jordan, Knowledge Fight
Fully agree with Jordan on that. Sad thing is, I think a lot of people would just accept it anyway. That's what's so depressing about the people who follow him. They actually buy into Alex's insanity so pointing out how crazy he really is wouldn't convince someone who is already a follower to stop following him. EDIT: I wanna add that I really do agree that it should be pointed out, though, because I imagine it could possibly sway someone who isn't too deep in the Alex swamp already to rethink the decision to take him seriously.
if i had a dollar for every time a conservative pundit/politician says they're fighting something that has zero basis in reality, i'd have enough to put a noticeable dent in Alex Jones' debt
Defamation covers statements that are harmful, or cause harm, such as damage to reputation causing loss of business, inciting violence, or severe emotional distress. What the court is trying to punish Jones for is definitely defamation- but his moaning and complaining about the ruling itself isn’t, so far as I know, unless he has continued to lash out at the victims of Sandy Hook. Either way though, how anybody takes Jones seriously is beyond me.
@@anjelica948unfortunately he has very much continued to lash out at the victims. I listen to a podcast about AJ (Knowledge Fight). His story isn’t consistent, but depending on his mood he has heavily implied that the Sandy hook parents suing him are actors whose kids didn’t die within the past 6 months.
@@deawinter That’s awful. You’d think someone in his inner circle would have restrained him by now. Or maybe they tried to and failed. One way or another though, he’ll be stopped. It might take a karmic force of nature to do it, but I firmly believe that what you put into the world is what you are given back. It’s the only way I sleep at night sometimes.
@@deawinter And he's allowed to IMPLY whatever he wants, the only reason he lost the lawsuit was he said they were fake and actors, and attempted to portray it as direct fact, which caused them to lose money, which caused him to be liable for lible.
The Alex Jones case might just be one of the most important cases in the last decade. Providing a clear legal precedent of liquidating an entire business for blatant, direct, harmful lies is a very good legal precedent to have.
@@masonbowen7436 There's a big difference between not liking and "blatant, direct, harmful lies". It's just libel and slander, aimed at the financial side of things. It closes loopholes being used to allow a malicious entity to keep ill-gotten gains.

We NEED to revamp out entire bankruptcy system. It is basically just a get-out-of-jail free card for wealthy individuals and companies to commit crimes and get to keep their fortunes. I also think we need to get rid of the LLC...but that's another matter...
I think expanding what is available for victims/claimants in a bankruptcy case would help a lot. Allowing the courts to expand the scope of the bankruptcy if there is evidence of fraud or hiding of assets. Eliminating the llc corporation is not a great idea as it itself has allowed for bigger ventures than what people were able to do before them.
@@benjamintomassennordahl7911Do we need bigger ventures at this point?

People like that need to be in prison if anyone should. Also for this particular case the jury and judge did not have the decision on whether or not he goes to prison it was a civil case so they literally weren't allowed to make that ruling, if somebody did this to your family in their darkest moment for 10 years straight fully knowing it was wrong would you be fine with them walking around free?

Once you know how to make money you can make millions in no time. They can take all his money he'll just make it back. 21 lives lost in exchange for what? money? No karma here.
Just a Connecticut resident checking in to express my abject disgust at Jones, and my utter delight at seeing him ruined by the cold fist of justice. Finally some good news!
Our Justice system is broken. There is no way this should be taking this long, and the fact that Jones will get away with even a little money is disgusting.
Unfortunately it won't help. E. Jean Caroll is going after Trump, a 'billionare' and each time she win she is awarded more money. With Alex Jones he has already been hit with Judgements for more money than he owns, so suing him again will only cost the families money and accomplish nothing more than adding to a debt he can't pay. Also there are still two more major lawsuits to come, they got stalled by the bankruptcy but if they go ahead then he'll probably get hit for another 100+ million.
He was found liable because he didn't comply with discovery. It would be unwise to rely on that happening again (even though Jones is dumb enough that it very well could).
@@chefcc90 You can do that, too, technically speaking. Banks hate THIS ONE TRICK.

Sounds like a former president and his lawyers
Well you see, thats called defamation.
I mean it can be considered perjury which is lying under oath if I’m not mistaken and that’s definitely a crime.
It is in real countries.
Sickening to see Alex Jones crying "they hate our children" after making a fortune off of people who actually lost their children to senseless violence
that's what I'm saying!
Yeah I was thinking they hate you not your children. It’s not their fault you tried to benefit on their suffering and endangered them by saying it was a conspiracy and encouraging others to rise against them.
*”they hate our childrens” 😂
Pretending to cry.
Its as if they conspire to find the most ironic and/or projective line of B.S. every time. It's not even a meme, just a fact. They're 100% guilty of whatever theyre accusing. Thats how they're so confident.
Aside from the main reasons “they hate our children” is ironic, never forget he forgot the ages of his own kids and then blamed it on a big ol’ bowl of chili at his own divorce hearings
I'm not really UNCONVINCED that Alex Jones DIDN'T eat so much chili it causes temporary parental amnesia.
I mean my parents have gotten my brother and my names mixed up since we were very young, and to this day when I visit he'll sometimes call me by my brother's name. He corrects himself immediately but still. Slips like that seem understandable to me.
Alex Jones is still an unrepentant monster who deserves far worse than he's getting though, that I will not argue against.
This is the silliest stuff...
A lot of people forget their own age... It is not uncommon to accidentally forget your own kids ages (years can blend together)...
This is one of the "Oh, bad guy is bad, so now I'll make everything he did bad!"
If you are arguing he is bad or it is "ironic" then you should also argue that it is bad or "ironic" that almost everyone does it. Big difference is most people don't do it publicly...
@@SioxerNikitayou're right that slip ups happen
Now where they SHOULDN'T happen is in a courtroom where a judge is deciding if you'll ever see your kids again
A caring parent usually makes sure to remember details for that. And even if a slip up does happen, you should apologize and correct yourself instead of making a dumb excuse everyone can see straight through
@@mrroboshadow Yes, they shouldn't. Also, you SHOULD apologize and correct yourself, but making a dumb excuse is what a lot ordinary people do.
Point being, the whole berate the guy for what is really bad, instead of berating him for something that'll make ordinary parents feel like shit parents.
I suppose what's crazy to me is that there's just no punishment for this stuff? Like Jones can just blatantly defy a court, siphon money in the open, still keep doing the thing he was being sued for, and just nothing happens!
The judge just goes "here's a piece of paper saying he owes you 8 squintillion. He's hidden a lot of assets though, so see if you can get $20 off him before the appeals court reduces it to $10. I'm also going to ignore that he's driven a different sports car to each hearing."
Insane, absolutely insane
Because he didn't commit any criminal acts, this is purely civil court. They can't arrest him for refusing to pay a civil fee, they can only fine him more. He's going to have to do some REALLY shady shit in this case to ever see jailtime. They can't imprison him simply for WORDS he said, hence why they had to hire multi-million dollar lawyers and take him to civil court.
@@SunbearSmoke you're not wrong at all. I just feel that a court process should be respected, even if it's a civil court you know? Like a law that stops you being deliberately obtuse in court, so that if you deliberately behave badly in a civil trial then the judge has criminal options...

I hope you won't be offended if I offer a gentle correction, but although Alex Jones is physically mature, he is neither intellectually nor emotionally. Thus, it would be more accurate to call him a "man-child" than a "man".

@@RipliWitaniit has plenty of authority but prison time isn't typically one of them. What they can do is seize anything and everything he owns to pay off the debts.
@@mwperk02 Eh, that was going to happen anyways. The issue in this case is the judgement is more than the value of all his money and assets combined, and the penalties for his misconduct in civil court are generally monetary, making them functionally meaningless. To a man who already got the worst monetary judgement in history (and who believes he can hide funds and assets in his parents' companies), it likely means nothing to him that he may face some fines.
That said civil violations can theoretically become criminal if he makes some particularly egregious moves so we'll see.

We can easily forgive leaders like George Bush, Dick Cheney, Hillary Clinton, and others of being literally responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqis, Afghanis, and Libyans.

The depravity of first defaming, then encouraging the harassment of the people whose own children were murdered in an act of horrific violence simply staggers the imagination.

“ I’m a Republican. it’s just that over the last 20 years religious fanatics co-opted my party.

I'm not a lawyer, and only took a few J-school classes as electives, but something that's worth remembering when you talk about his case: It is very difficult to prove defamation in US courts even when compared to other Common Law countries like the UK, and if Jones had actually complied with the process, there's a non-zero chance he walked out of that courtroom with either symbolic damages or no liability at all.
This is what happens when you thumb your nose at the system.

You are that it was hard in the US. I remember Johny Depp has to switch tactic in his defense because proving that Amber Heard defame Johny was an uphill battle. Instead the legal team went for unorthodox way of establishing that Amber Heard was not trustworthy by focusing about her lies that could be proven in courts. Basically the strategy was by showing the person was a liar and hid the truth, she must have act in reckless disregard of the truth and with actual malice toward Depp.
Malignant narcissism can be incredibly self destructive. Just look at DJT.

It is fraud.
I'm no lawyer, but if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck....
I was injured as a firefighter and incurred massive debt as I went through a multitude of surgeries over several years that ultimately resulted in me declaring bankruptcy. With the exception of my auto loan that I was current on most of my debt were medical bills save for maybe $4k in credit card debt. So, basically, I was small fish. I wasn’t making big money by any means nor did I have considerable assets to my name.
Anyway, I say all this because my bankruptcy attorney made it abundantly clear that it’s fraudulent to hide assets or misrepresent any debt to the court. My mom had actually loaned me money so I had listed her as a creditor because the attorney had said once I file bankruptcy I can’t show any preference to one creditor or another - even family.

He is committing fraud and worse, some of the parents had to move almost a dozen times and others committed seppuku (not alive any longer). He should also be charged in the deaths as bullying people to death is literally torture.

@@wendighoul exactly. Him and Trump both know exactly what they are doing.
I can’t wrap my head around how someone can say they’re poor when they have a more expensive house and car than most people do.
Because Jones is a conman. He's "poor" when needs to be sympathetic to suckers, and "rich" when he needs it as tool to get people to live vicariously through his success.
He doesn't have a single ounce of regret for what he's done. He's upset that he got in trouble, but he'll never be sorry for the horrible things he's said and done. Even if they take every penny of assets he has and all his supporters turn on him, he will never consider that what he did was wrong.

"Anytime anyone brings up Alex Jones it is important that they also bring up that Alex thinks he is fighting the literal Christian devil from space" - Jordan, Knowledge Fight

Fully agree with Jordan on that. Sad thing is, I think a lot of people would just accept it anyway. That's what's so depressing about the people who follow him. They actually buy into Alex's insanity so pointing out how crazy he really is wouldn't convince someone who is already a follower to stop following him.
EDIT: I wanna add that I really do agree that it should be pointed out, though, because I imagine it could possibly sway someone who isn't too deep in the Alex swamp already to rethink the decision to take him seriously.
My favorite podcast!

Seems like every time Jones complains about the rulings, one could argue that it's another instance of defamation...
Defamation covers statements that are harmful, or cause harm, such as damage to reputation causing loss of business, inciting violence, or severe emotional distress. What the court is trying to punish Jones for is definitely defamation- but his moaning and complaining about the ruling itself isn’t, so far as I know, unless he has continued to lash out at the victims of Sandy Hook.
Either way though, how anybody takes Jones seriously is beyond me.
@@anjelica948unfortunately he has very much continued to lash out at the victims. I listen to a podcast about AJ (Knowledge Fight). His story isn’t consistent, but depending on his mood he has heavily implied that the Sandy hook parents suing him are actors whose kids didn’t die within the past 6 months.
You're right ... But it's taken a decade to litigate the first batch of defamations, and it's not like they'd collect more.
@@deawinter That’s awful. You’d think someone in his inner circle would have restrained him by now. Or maybe they tried to and failed.
One way or another though, he’ll be stopped. It might take a karmic force of nature to do it, but I firmly believe that what you put into the world is what you are given back. It’s the only way I sleep at night sometimes.
@@deawinter And he's allowed to IMPLY whatever he wants, the only reason he lost the lawsuit was he said they were fake and actors, and attempted to portray it as direct fact, which caused them to lose money, which caused him to be liable for lible.
The Alex Jones case might just be one of the most important cases in the last decade. Providing a clear legal precedent of liquidating an entire business for blatant, direct, harmful lies is a very good legal precedent to have.

@@joshowen9054no it doesn't.

We NEED to revamp out entire bankruptcy system. It is basically just a get-out-of-jail free card for wealthy individuals and companies to commit crimes and get to keep their fortunes. I also think we need to get rid of the LLC...but that's another matter...
I think expanding what is available for victims/claimants in a bankruptcy case would help a lot. Allowing the courts to expand the scope of the bankruptcy if there is evidence of fraud or hiding of assets. Eliminating the llc corporation is not a great idea as it itself has allowed for bigger ventures than what people were able to do before them.
Not necessarily get rid of LLC protections, but definitely lower the standards under which that limit can be breached.
@@benjamintomassennordahl7911Do we need bigger ventures at this point? We have massive vertical integration that's got a stranglehold on the market, and company structures where rhe people at the top set incentives for those below them to break the law or otherwise act unethically, but face no repercussions because they hide behind a shield of wilful ignorance to the details of what their underlings are doing.
As much as I don't appreciate Alex's misinformation, we are not a debtor's society for a reason. Not going to change that for a few bad actors.
@@benjamintomassennordahl7911 The bigger ventures are actually killing our planet and making most people poorer...so getting rid of the bigger ventures would just be a nice side bonus to being able to hold bad actors accountable.

I am not supporting Alex Zones here.
But jury/judge didn’t come to that conclusion.
@@GZilla311sorry that's kind of ridiculous, they aren't arresting him because he runs interference for them when they f*** up and spends 12 hours a day talking about how they need more money
@@gund89123he's defrauded people for millions of dollars all the money he makes is from fraud. He adds caffeine to his pills without putting it on the label which has caused poisonings, there is a specific loophole that makes this not a felony.
Besides that he's directly responsible for multiple fatal hospital shootings because of lies he tells for profit, he's proud of it, I guess it makes him feel like he has a bit of control since his kids don't talk to him.
People like that need to be in prison if anyone should.
Also for this particular case the jury and judge did not have the decision on whether or not he goes to prison it was a civil case so they literally weren't allowed to make that ruling, if somebody did this to your family in their darkest moment for 10 years straight fully knowing it was wrong would you be fine with them walking around free?

If Jones continues to defame these bereaved parents, could they not follow E. Jean Carroll's example and sue him again, and AGAIN, until he stops?
He can't stop lying, griftng, or drop dead soon enough. Whatever illls befall him, he brought them on himself.
That's what I was wondering. The current judgement may be enough to ruin him, but more judgements would ensure that.
Unfortunately it won't help. E. Jean Caroll is going after Trump, a 'billionare' and each time she win she is awarded more money. With Alex Jones he has already been hit with Judgements for more money than he owns, so suing him again will only cost the families money and accomplish nothing more than adding to a debt he can't pay.
Also there are still two more major lawsuits to come, they got stalled by the bankruptcy but if they go ahead then he'll probably get hit for another 100+ million.
He was found liable because he didn't comply with discovery. It would be unwise to rely on that happening again (even though Jones is dumb enough that it very well could).
