  2. The unanimous opinion of by the Texas Third Court of Appeals found that #SandyHook parents Neil Heslin & Scarlett Lewis did not show evidence that #harassment enflamed by #AlexJones’ hoax claims rose to a level that would allow them to exceed the state’s $750,000 cap on damages.

  3. Horrible

    A #Texas court has slashed the $50 million judgment to $1.5 million against Infowars founder #AlexJones over falsely calling 2012 #SandyHook #SchoolShooting a hoax.

    The ruling does not affect a $1.4 billion judgement against Jones in Connecticut, but is a significant legal victory for Jones after he & his company, Free Speech Systems, were found liable for damages for claiming the #MassShooting didn’t happen.
