So are quite a few of the things Jones' followers have already done. The "we are pissing on your sons grave and we're digging up the casket" is probably the most horrific one, alongside Lafferty's half dozen rape threats.

the judge has been talking long enough that I've totally lost track of what she's saying 5 times. how do they expect any jury to keep up to someone reading a massive document? keep it simple: Jones ruined these people's lives who had already had their lives ruined. He profited MASSIVELY because of his behavior over a decade. Pay them.

The thing here that makes this important is that CUTPA charge. Because it was included in the charge, you are going to end up seeing a stupid high number. And that's not something Jones can argue.

Alex barring the doors at infowars with his employees inside and starting a fire is the secret bonus good ending. E: although a [i]The Shield/i] style ending where he has to do his show but only answer callers and shill brain pills forever so he can pay back a billion dollars in damages works too. red19fire fucked around with this message at 20:56 on Oct 6, 2022 |

Yeah Alex Jones kind of ruined chili for me. And that really loving sucks, because it was such a good food. Also, WELCOME TO THE FUN PART: the waiting. This can either be a few hours, or a few days. To be very brutally honest, I fully expect the jury to come back before the weekend. It's just a matter of the number on that verdict.

I think the jury returning damages fast would be in Jones's favor; if they're going to implement some real punative damages, then there's going to be a fair amount of back and forth on what the exact number should be. That could take a day or two.

Jury returns shaken, disheveled, they all get dropped out of the matrix for an hour and realized it is all a simulation, but since money isn't real, they go ahead and award the families all of jones' money.

Allies of Jones on the inside want real justice so it's time to appeal and continue the fight! I think the best thing is to just ignore whatever bleating he does until he crosses another default/contempt/first death sentence in civil court line.

He drinks about 1000ml a day based on that surveillance video footage. So that drunk. e: I guess that's just what gets caught on camera. I have no reason to believe that he stops drinking when away from the studio.

I wasn't talking about Jones's response because who gives a gently caress about that shithead and what he says. I was talking about wanting a speedy response from the jury. If they had emerged from the jury room today with a number in hand, it would be because they were doing effectively nothing to Jones. If they take a day or two, it's probably a good sign. If they take longer than that, then a lunatic has probably derailed the jury.

"Your honor, we decided that in addition to all of the money generated by Alex Jones since Sandy Hook be awarded to the plaintiffs, that Alex Jones should also be forced to subside solely on the products he sells through his store for a period of no less than 1 year". Or would that fall under "cruel and unusual torture"?

Random Stranger posted:Hard to appeal a default. They'd have to show an error of law and when the error is that you're a dumbass, appeals courts aren't going to give you another shot. Not only a default, a default because they would not stop loving off in discovery. It's like the one way to guarantee no judge will ever humor to an appeal. Like if you get a default because you couldn't make the appearance date, that's one thing and you can (sometimes) find a sympathetic court. If you default because of active malice to standard court procedure you are going to get the brakes beaten off you.
