The $1 Billion Alex Jones Effect
Quick Glance: Will Alex Jones give $1 billion to Sandy Hook families? What you need to know about the massive reward.
  • Infowars founder Alex Jones was sentenced to pay almost $1 billion to family of Sandy Hook mass shooting victims for spreading the idea that the tragedy was staged — a startling judgement described by one lawyer as "probably one of the largest defamation verdicts in U.S. history."

  • The compensatory damages granted by a Connecticut jury on Wednesday were the most so far in various lawsuits filed by families of victims in the Newtown, Conn., attack that killed 20 children and six instructors.

  • Families and allies of the victims said the verdict proves "the truth matters."

Quick Glance: Alex Jones Sandy Hook damages could follow him the rest of his life
  • "Do these people actually think they're getting any of this money?

  • " Jones stated.

  • Lawyers told Insider that the damages were astounding for a slander case, with Barhoma calling the payout a "jaw-dropping" number.

  • "Compensatory damages are looking to make a plaintiff whole," Barhoma said, adding that while Jones will almost certainly appeal the verdict, an appellate court will be less inclined to interfere with compensatory damages awarded by a jury.

  • Furthermore, unlike punitive penalties, compensatory damages are not capped in Connecticut, according to some lawyers.
