A Texas-based federal bankruptcy judge ruled Thursday that Infowars host Alex Jones can’t hide behind Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection to avoid have to pay up in a major way for “willful and malicious” harm he caused Sandy Hook families by lying about the 2012 elementary school shooting that left 20 children and six educators dead.

U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez began his ruling by noting that the Bankruptcy Code “provides that some debts are excepted from a bankruptcy ‘discharge’ and remain enforceable against the debtor even after a bankruptcy case ends.”
