And this is just for two of the Sandy Hook families, remember.
Verdict: Alex Jones owes $45.2 million more to Sandy Hook in punitive damages. That's on top of $4.1 million in compensatory.
That's $49.3 million to two Sandy Hook families. Two more trials after this.
Unanimous verdict (what's required for punitive damages).

"When this man talks, he lies."
