Jones’ financesĪlex Jones is probably worth between $135 million to $270 million and has been siphoning money from his main company, Free Speech Systems for years, especially after he lost three defamation lawsuits by default in 2021, according to an expert paid by two Sandy Hook parents in their lawsuit for damages. The parents’ attorney has said he’s prepared to fight any cap. “I'm sure the judgment will properly conform with the laws of Texas in that regard,” Judge Maya Guerra Gamble said. “And I am hoping that he really takes this to heart because in the end love is a choice, and what he’s putting out there, lies, hatred, fear, that’s a choice too, and I think sometimes we have to have the awareness to have a choice and I hope going forward that he will choose love.” “I think he’s been held accountable,” said Scarlett Lewis, mother of 6-year-old Jesse Lewis, who was killed in the Sandy Hook massacre. This falls about $100 million short of the parents’ request of $150 million - $1 in compensation and $1 in punishment for the estimated 75 million Americans who experts claim don’t believe or doubt the shooting occurred.
This means the parents will be awarded $49.3 million in total damages. As for property, Jones currently owns a mansion in a gated community in Austin, Texas, which is said to be worth $2.5 million.įor more news and updates, keep watching this space.The award comes one day after the same jury required Jones to pay the parents $4.1 million for intentional infliction of mental anguish they endured during years of Jones’ Infowars broadcasts that claimed the death of their son Jesse in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings was a “hoax” committed by “crisis actors.” The same jury then ordered him to pay another $45 million as punitive damages. The family had won a previous defamation lawsuit. In August, a court in Austin ordered Alex to pay $4.1 million to a Sandy Hook shooting victim’s family in compensatory damages. Alex then transferred $750,000 from his personal accounts to the trust and planned to contribute another $2 million in the future. A trust was set up to compensate the individuals who had filed lawsuits against the companies.
Three companies linked with Jones filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in April this year. Alex, who has been facing legal issues for quite some time, has claimed that he has spent $15 million as legal charges. During the 2018 CPAC conference, the website was able to make $800,000 in a single day. As per records, the company averaged $53.2 million in gross revenue between 20.
