"Sandy Hook families asked a Connecticut judge to order Alex Jones to pay $2.75 trillion in damages in addition to the almost $1 billion a jury awarded for defamation, claiming only 'the highest possible punitive damages,' will stop the Infowars host from continuing to harm them," Bloomberg reports. The families said they're entitled to the amount because Jones broke a state law barring the sale of products using false statements. They reached the sum by multiplying the state law's $5,000 per-violation fine by the 550 million social media exposures Jones's audience received on his Facebook, YouTube and Twitter accounts in the three years following a school shooting that claimed the lives of 20 first graders and six educators in 2012."Let me get this straight: you're asking for $2.75 TRILLION on top of the $1 billion he already owes you and you're accusing Alex Jones of "greed"?
