The right-wing conspiracy theorist, who owes Sandy Hook families nearly $1.5 billion, spent thousands on housekeeping, meals and entertainment, a court filing says.
The right-wing conspiracy theorist spent $93,180 for the month, including thousands of dollars toward payments to his wife, housekeeping, meals and entertainment, according to an Aug. 29 court filing from lawyers of the families obtained by The Washington Post. The family’s lawyers say Jones’s personal spending in May and June also reflected that he has not taken his legal fees into consideration, as he spent $63,925 and $85,114, respectively.
Jones, who has been ordered to pay nearly $1.5 billion to the families after years of saying the 2012 massacre in Newtown, Conn., was a hoax, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Southern District of Texas last December. He continues to tell his Infowars audience that he has money problems, urging them to buy his products to support his cause. Jones’s personal net worth is around $14 million, according to financial documents filed by Jones and his bankruptcy lawyers.
But attorneys for the Sandy Hook families allege that the $15,184 in July payments to his wife, Erika Wulff Jones, represented “fraudulent transfers” under a claimed prenuptial agreement. “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,” Christopher Mattei, a Connecticut lawyer for the families, told The Post in a statement. “The families are increasingly concerned and will continue to contest these matters in court.”
