Alex Jones is bankrupt.

For

A federal bankruptcy judge in Texas ordered Alex Jones to sell his personal assets through a Chapter 7 liquidation to pay nearly $1.5 billion in damages to Sandy Hook families, indicating he has been placed into liquidation (NPR, 2024-06-14). Jones previously filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection for himself (and his company) in December 2022, and later agreed to convert his case to a Chapter 7 liquidation (NPR, 2022; NPR, 2024-06-14). Media reporting states that Jones and his parent company Free Speech Systems have declared bankruptcy and that Infowars/Free Speech Systems are being liquidated through federal bankruptcy court to satisfy the judgments (BBC; NPR, 2024-10-09).

Against

Jones does business through a web of corporate entities and Free Speech Systems filed for bankruptcy separately from Jones, so the bankruptcy status and proceedings differ between his personal case and corporate cases (NPR, 2022; NPR, 2024-06-14). Some families and parties have pushed for different procedural outcomes (dismissal, conversion to Chapter 7 for the company) and judges have issued varied rulings about the companies and auctions, reflecting ongoing legal complexity rather than a single simple status (NPR 2024-06-14; NPR 2025-02-05). Reports also note that, even amid liquidation orders, families have not yet received full payments and receivers/auctions and further proceedings have continued, showing the process is active and contested (NPR 2025-06-06; NPR 2025-08-13).
