Alex Jones just lost at the Supreme Court over the gargantuan penalty he must pay to the families of the Sandy Hook shooting that took place in 2012.
The highest court in the land simply refused to take up his appeal, leaving him to pay the $1.4 billion in damages.
Here’s the news via ABC:
The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected the appeal from conservative commentator and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who has been ordered to pay $1.4 billion in damages to the families of victims of the 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
The court did not explain the denial.
I know Alex Jones spewed a lot of nonsense and lies, but $1.4 billion is absolutely insane and I don’t see how he could ever pay such a penalty.
