A Texas jury on Friday decided that conspiracy theorist Alex Jones must pay the parents of a child killed in the Sandy Hook school shooting $45.2 million in punitive damages.
The announcement came just one day after Jones was ordered to pay a $4 million award for compensatory damages for defaming Neil Heslin and Scarlett Lewis.
They are the parents of Jesse Lewis, six, who was killed along with 19 other first graders and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012.
