What he said about it wasn't even that bad. He repeated a few theories going around at the time, didn't make up anything himself, then moved on. When more information came out, he openly and publicly retracted his words and apologized. The entire length of time he'd talked about the event before being sued, if you put it back to back, couldn't have been much more than 5 minutes. It was a blip under the radar.
And then he's made to pay an absolutely outrageous fee for something he'd already retracted and apologized about years prior, when his statements had basically no long term impact whatsoever.
Nobody who thinks a man should be fined billions of dollars for thinking it was weird that a Sandy Hook parent was laughing and joking right before a press conference when he didn't know the camera was on can be honest about anything.
I think even the most die hard Alex Jones hater who has a shred of honesty can probably bring themselves to admit that the way the families against him behaved against him in court was pretty disgusting.
I find their actions against the man MORE disgusting than if they had actually staged their children's deaths in an elaborate hoax to gain public support for firearms regulation. At least in that case they could claim they were doing the right thing to get rid of guns or some liberal bullshit.
That's lawfare. Whether it's because someone ripped you off or whatever you're trying to get even it's always wrong because the law cannot make true amends.
How did that degenerate have an estate? I thought he was homeless and fresh out of jail. Maybe they inherited his secret stash.

Absolutely ridiculous sequence of events.

Or maybe he was being paid for what he was doing that day.
It's a way of masking "the family of the pedophile was told it could be pay day by political actors".
technically everyone has an estate when you die. it owns all assets, liabilities, and legal claims of the deceased until the estate is settled.
An estate is just whatever he had ownership of at time of his death. It could be nothing or a penny or even debt
