Alex Jones ordered to pay $1m in legal fees to Sandy Hook parents

Importantly, this was just about the legal fees. The post explicitly says that “In the two cases he has already lost, damages are yet to be assessed.” So he lost the cases in two states and the judges have determined that he will be paying damages. At this point it’s going to be up to juries to determine what that amount will be. Since these are civil cases that don’t require unanimous votes, it seems unlikely that one or two nut jobs will be able to deadlock the juries or return an assessment of zero dollars, so he’ll likely be paying out a lot. But we’ll see what happens.
