(The Hill) – The trustee in charge of Alex Jones’s bankruptcy proceedings said Monday that he will move to shut down the Infowars media site and liquidate Jones’s business assets as he attempts to repay the families of Sandy Hook school shooting victims.
Court-appointed trustee Christopher Murray said in an “emergency” motion that he will “conduct an orderly wind-down” of Infowars and sell off its assets.
The announcement comes weeks after a federal judge in Texas ruled to liquidate Jones’s personal assets. The judge did not determine the fate of Infowars at the time.
