U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez rejected the settlement at a hearing in Houston, saying the families were asking him to also divide up the assets of Infowars’ parent company Free Speech Systems, despite the fact that the company had been dismissed from bankruptcy last year.
“I can’t do that,” Lopez said. “That case is closed."
Courts in Connecticut and Texas, where some of the families filed their lawsuits, have ruled Jones defamed the families by making repeated false claims that the school shooting, which killed 20 students and six staff members in Newton, Connecticut, was staged as part of a government plot to take guns away from Americans.
Remember for like a week we were all excited that The Onion was gonna buy Infowars.
That was a good week :(
I’m only surprised Alex Jones hasn’t been given an official cabinet position.
He’s next for Health Secretary if jr gets rejected.
That would be bad news for the frogs.
Does he have a bone broth that will cure bird flu, I wonder?
I bet the Irish sea moss he’s selling lately does more for your immune system. Or so he’d say…
Just a guess here, but I’m betting he happens to be principal owner of the parent company that would be in a position to retain assets on behalf of Infowars.
Corporate masking BS
Oh yeah I’m pretty sure he was openly raising money to do exactly that.
