The move is necessary for Jones to cover the $1.5 billion in damages he owes families of victims.
Far-right conspiracy theorist and InfoWars owner Alex Jones on Thursday took steps to liquidate his assets in order to pay legal damages owed to victims of the the 2012 Sandy Hook school massacre.The move is necessary to cover the $1.5 billion he has been ordered to pay the families of victims, and would end his ownership of InfoWars, which he founded in the late 1990s.
Jones had called the school shooting that killed 20 children and six educators a hoax, and said on his show that it was staged by actors in an effort to pass more gun control laws. Over the weekend, Jones said on his radio show that he expected Infowars to be shut down within months. 'There's really no avenue out of this,' Jones said on Sunday. 'I'm kind of in the bunker here. And don't worry. I'll come back. The enemy can't help but do this attack,' he said.
