Alex Jones Spent $93K In July. He Hasn't Paid The Sandy Hook Families

Conspiracy theorist Alex Jones owes $1.5 billion the Sandy Hook parents won last year in lawsuits for repeatedly calling the mass shooting a hoax. Jones spent years accusing the family members of the shooting victims of being actors in a hoax and suggested that their children were still alive.

The problem is that Jones has not paid the money he owes, but he's spending money hand over fist. Jones, worth $14 million, spent $93,000 in July alone.

Via the Associated Press:

The conspiracy theorist and his lawyers file monthly financial reports in his personal bankruptcy case, and the latest one has struck a nerve with the families of victims of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. They're still seeking the $1.5 billion they won last year in lawsuits against Jones and his media company for repeatedly calling the 2012 massacre a hoax on his shows.

"It is disturbing that Alex Jones continues to spend money on excessive household expenditures and his extravagant lifestyle when that money rightfully belongs to the families he spent years tormenting," said Christopher Mattei, a Connecticut lawyer for the families. "The families are increasingly concerned and will continue to contest these matters in court."
