US Supreme Court Rejects Alex Jones' Challenge to $1.4 Billion Defamation Judgment
The Supreme Court denied Alex Jones' appeal, upholding a $1.4 billion judgment for defamation related to Sandy Hook.
The Supreme Court declined to hear a challenge by conspiracy theorist Alex Jones to a $1.4 billion judgment awarded to families of the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School mass shooting in Connecticut.
The judgment was for the Infowars website founder’s false statements that the 2012 incident was a hoax.
- 26 people were killed in the incident, including 20 students and 6 staff members.
- The shooter was a 20-year-old former student who fatally shot himself after the attack.
- The judgment was issued to 14 family members of children and school employees who were killed and an FBI agent who responded to the shooting.
The justices turned away his appeal of the Connecticut Appellate Court’s decision in a defamation lawsuit against him.
The judicial body left the judgment in place.
No comment from Alex Jones was available.
Author summary: Supreme Court upholds $1.4 billion judgment against Alex Jones.
