Judge Denies Alex Jones Bankruptcy Protection, Orders Payment of $1.1 Billion to Sandy Hook Families

TL;DR Summary
Infowars host Alex Jones has been denied the use of bankruptcy protection to avoid paying over $1.1 billion to families who sued him over his conspiracy theories claiming that the Sandy Hook school massacre was a hoax. U.S. District Judge Christopher Lopez ruled that Jones cannot seek protection due to findings of "willful and malicious" conduct. This decision marks another significant defeat for Jones, who has faced legal consequences for spreading falsehoods about the shooting. Despite claiming financial difficulties, Jones vowed to continue appealing the verdicts and maintaining his presence on air.
