US court orders conspiracy theorist to pay $49 million for lying about mass shootings / Article

A US court has ordered a conspiracy theorist to pay $49 million for lying about a mass shooting


A jury ordered Alex Jones to pay $45.2 million on Friday for calling the elementary school shooting that killed 20 children and six adults a staged act by gun control advocates.

He will have to pay this amount to Scarlett Lewis and Neil Heslin, whose six-year-old son Jesse was among those killed in the shooting.

On Thursday, the court also ordered Jones to pay them $4.1 million in damages for emotional distress.
