Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones’ fiction-spewing media empire Infowars will be shut down and its assets sold for parts, his bankruptcy court-appointed trustee, Christopher Murray, confirmed in an emergency court filing, HuffPost reported.
Earlier this month, a bankruptcy judge ordered Jones to liquidate his personal assets to pay nearly $1.5 billion to the families of the victims of the Sandy Hook massacre. However, at the time the judge also ruled that Infowars’ parent company, Free Speech Systems, didn’t need to be liquidated because that would be costly time and money-wise.
