Quick Glance: Alex Jones was ordered to pay $45.2 million to the Sandy Hook family.
- These punitive damages are in addition to the $4.1 million in compensatory damages he must pay to the mother and father of a 6-year-old boy slain in the 2012 shooting.
- Late Friday, jurors issued a decision against Alex Jones, ordering him to pay $45.2 million in punitive damages to the parents of a child slain in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.
- "[Alex Jones] is worth almost $270 million that we know of."
- The verdict concluded off a terrible trial for the conspiracy theorist, which included his own lawyers handing a lawyer for the Sandy Hook victim's family two years' worth of Jones' damaging text conversations.
