Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones agreed Thursday to liquidate his personal assets to pay off some of the $1.5 billion in damages he owes to families of Sandy Hook victims for lies he told about the 2012 school massacre, NBC News reported.
In light of the move, Jones will no longer own Infowars, a powerful conspiracy-spewing empire he founded in the 1990s. Jones had used his media company to spread vile conspiracy theories, about everything from 9/11 to school shootings, that made him a very rich man. He had earlier declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
