Soak the motherfucker
Alex Jones is offering $120 K per family to settle claims related to his harassing them with vile, false conspiracy theories. They are telling him to eat shit:
“Infowars” founder Alex Jones offered this week to pay $120,000 per plaintiff to resolve a lawsuit filed by the families of six people killed in the 2012 mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
The response came within a matter of hours: no.
“The so-called offer,” lawyers for the families wrote in Connecticut court filings, “is a transparent and desperate attempt by Alex Jones to escape a public reckoning under oath with his deceitful, profit-driven campaign against the plaintiffs and the memory of their loved ones lost at Sandy Hook.”
Wednesday’s rejection sets the stage for the two sides to meet at trial. A jury is to decide how much Jones will pay over his false assertions that the Newtown, Conn., shooting — which left 20 elementary schoolchildren and six adults dead — was “a giant hoax.”
If the families want to do it, a trial would be great and the massive verdict against him that is enormously likely to ensue would be even better.
