Texas Cuts Jones’ Punitive Damages | Hattiesburg News

from Hattiesburg News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A Texas appeals court slashed Alex Jones’ punitive damages from $45 million to $1.5 million, citing state law’s cap of $750,000 per plaintiff—but the larger $1.25 billion judgment in Connecticut remains untouched. The Sandy Hook families, still reeling from years of harassment and online abuse fueled by Jones’ false claims, haven’t yet collected a dime as his company faces bankruptcy and he continues pushing his conspiracy theories. Meanwhile, a satirical bid by The Onion to turn his platforms into parody sites was blocked by a judge, leaving Jones’ legal and financial collapse still unfolding.
