What could be next for Alex Jones? One lawyer's take - YouTube
Channel: CNN
[1]
MUCH FOR YOUR EXCELLENT
[2]
REPORTING.
[2]
>>> I WANT TO BRING IN THE STATE
[4]
ATTORNEY FOR PALM BEACH COUNTY
[5]
DOWN IN FLORIDA, DAVE EHRENBERG.
[8]
SO GIVE US YOUR SENSE.
[10]
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THE VERDICT,
[12]
$45.2 MILLION IN PUNITIVE
[15]
DAMAGES.
[16]
>> WOLF, IT IS A BIG VICTORY FOR
[17]
THE PLAINTIFFS WHO HAVE SUFFERED
[19]
FOR SO LONG AT THE HANDS OF THIS
[23]
BELIEVY ATING WIND BAG.
[24]
A LOT OF US WITH DISAPPOINTED IN
[27]
THAT $4.1 MILLION IN
[28]
COMPENSATORY DAMAGES.
[29]
SO I WAS EXPECTING A HAMMER TO
[31]
COME DOWN TODAY AND IN PUNITIVES
[33]
AND IT DID.
[35]
$45.2 MILLION.
[35]
NOW IT MAY BE REDUCED BY THE
[38]
STATUTORY CAP IN TEXAS.
[39]
BUT IT IS STILL A VICTORY.
[41]
IT IS NOT OVER.
[42]
BECAUSE THERE ARE TWO MORE
[43]
TRIALS JUST LIKE THIS WHERE HE
[45]
COULD ALSO GET HIT WITH BIG TIME
[47]
DAMAGES AND THEN THERE IS THE
[50]
POSSIBILITY THAT PROSECUTORS
[52]
COULD FILE CHARGES AGAINST ALEX
[56]
JONES FOR PERJURY.
[58]
IT TAKES RARE TALENT TO TURN
[59]
YOUR CIVIL TRIAL INTO A CRIMINAL
[61]
ONE.
[61]
SO HIS LEGAL PROBLEMS ARE NOT
[64]
OVER.
[64]
>> I WANT TO BRING IN JOEY
[65]
JACKS.
[66]
THE JUDGE COULD CAP THESE
[68]
DAMAGES AS DAVE JUST SAID.
[70]
YOU COULD EXPLAIN WHY AND WHAT
[71]
THAT POTENTIALLY COULD MEAN FOR
[72]
THESE PARENTS.
[74]
>> YEAH, YOU KNOW, AT THE END OF
[75]
THE DAY, WOLF, THIS IS OBVIOUSLY
[77]
A BIG DEAL.
[78]
I THINK THE JURY SPOKE.
[79]
THEY SPOKE MASSIVELY.
[81]
AND SO THE PUNITIVE DAMAGE AWARD
[84]
REALLY DEALT WITH THE ISSUE OF
[86]
HOW HORRIFIC THESE LIES WERE AND
[87]
HOW IT IMPACTED AND EFFECTS THIS
[90]
PARTICULAR FAMILY AND CERTAINLY
[91]
HE HAS A COUPLE OF OTHERS TO GO
[93]
THROUGH.
[93]
BUT THIS STATUTORY CAPS AND WHAT
[95]
THAT MEANS IS THAT DIFFERENT
[98]
JURISDICTIONS LIMIT THE AMOUNT
[99]
OF PUNITIVE DAMAGES.
[100]
WHAT THEY DO THAT FOR IS THEY DO
[102]
THAT SO IT PREVENTED RUINOUS
[104]
LIABILITY.
[105]
SO YOU DON'T TAKE DOWN ANY
[106]
PARTICULAR COMPANY.
[107]
SO WHILE A JURY COULD AWARD 45,
[111]
$44 MILLION, $100 MILLION, THE
[112]
STATUTORY CAP WOULD LIMIT IT TO
[113]
A SPECIFIC AMOUNT OF DAMAGES
[115]
SUCH THAT NOT THIS PARTICULAR
[116]
BUSINESS, IT WASN'T AIMED FOR
[117]
THIS AT ALL, IT WAS AIMED FOR
[118]
THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY IN
[120]
GENERAL.
[120]
TO RECOGNIZE THAT PEOPLE COULD
[121]
HAVE RELIEF, HOWEVER THAT RELIEF
[124]
NOTWITHSTANDING THE JURY'S
[125]
FEELINGS, THOUGHTS AND VIEWS AND
[127]
BELIEFS AND HERE WE KNOW WHAT
[128]
THOSE VIEWS ARE.
[129]
IT DOESN'T RUIN A PARTICULAR
[132]
COMPANY AND THAT IS WHAT IT
[132]
MEANS TO HAVE A STATUTORY
[133]
LIMITATION OR CAP AS IT RELATES
[135]
TO PUPIVE DAMAGES.
[136]
>> AND THE FAMILY ATTORNEY
[139]
ACCUSED JONES OF HIDING HIS
[140]
WEALTH BY FILING FOR BREAKING
[143]
NEWS -- FOR BANKRUPTCY DURING
[147]
THE COURSE OF THE TRIAL.
[148]
>> I THINK JUSTICE DELAYED WON'T
[152]
BE JUSTICE DENIED.
[153]
YOU HAVE COME IN WITH CLEAN HAND
[155]
AS AND THAT MEANS THAT YOU CAN'T
[157]
DISSIPATE ASSETS OR HIDE OR
[159]
REMOVE ASSETS IN AN EFFORT AND
[162]
ATTEMPT TO STIFLE OR MISDIRECT
[164]
OR MISAPPROPRIATE, NOT ALLOW
[165]
PEOPLE TO GET THEIR MONEY.
[166]
SO WHILE I THINK THAT IT WILL
[168]
HAVE SOME EFFECT, BECAUSE THE
[169]
FAMILY WILL BE LOOKING WHERE
[170]
THOSE ASSETS ARE, THAIL BE
[172]
TRYING TO MAKE AN ASSESSMENT AS
[173]
TO HOW THEY GET THEM.
[175]
I THINK THAT ULTIMATELY IF THE
[176]
DAMAGES WERE DISSIPATED IN A WAY
[178]
THAT WAS FRAUDULENT, THEY WERE
[180]
DISSIPATED IN A WAY THAT WAS AN
[181]
ATTEMPT TO DENY RELIEF THAT
[184]
THOSE ASSETS ABOUT LE GOTTEN AND
[185]
THERE IS OTHER ISSUES AS DAVID
[188]
MENTIONED.
[188]
THE CRIMINAL ASPECT IS HERE WITH
[190]
THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, THE
[192]
JANUARY 6, THERE IS SO MUCH THAT
[194]
EMANATED FROM THIS.
[195]
MUCH MORE THAN MONEY.
[196]
>> DAVE, LET ME GET YOUR
[198]
THOUGHTS ON THAT AS WELL.
[199]
THE FACT THAT JONES WAS FILING
[200]
FOR BANKRUPTCY DURING THE COURSE
[203]
OF THE TRIAL.
[204]
>> SOMETHING REALLY NEEDS TO BE
[206]
DONE ABOUT BANKRUPTCY ABUSE IN
[207]
THE COUNTRY.
[209]
HE IS NOT THE FIRST ONE TO DO IT
[211]
AND HE WON'T BE THE LAST.
[212]
ATTEMPTS TO HIDE YOUR MONEY,
[214]
THERE IS EVIDENT THAT HE STARTED
[215]
TO TAKE AWAY $11,000 A DAY FROM
[217]
HIS COMPANIES TO HIDE IT AFTER
[220]
HE GOT HIT WITH THE DEFAULT
[222]
JUDGMENT.
[223]
AND SO SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE
[224]
DONE ABOUT IT.
[226]
AND AGREE WITH JOEY, JUSTICE
[228]
WILL BE DELAYED BUT NOT DENIED.
[230]
I THINK PLAINTIFFS WILL GET
[230]
THEIR MONEY AND AGAIN THERE ARE
[232]
MORE PLAINTIFFS LINED UP IN THE
[233]
NEAR FUTURE TO SUE HIM AND GET A
[235]
BIG RECOVERY.
[235]
>> WELL ON THAT POINT, JOEY,
[237]
THIS IS THE FIRST OF WHAT, THREE
[239]
TRIALS FOR DAMAGES AGAINST
[241]
JONES.
[241]
WHAT COULD FUTURE TRIALS
[243]
POTENTIALLY YIELD?
[244]
>> I THINK THEY'LL YIELD MORE
[245]
RELIEF FOR FAMILIES IF YOU COULD
[246]
CALL IT RELIEF.
[248]
WHEN YOU LOSE A YOUNG ONE WHO IS
[251]
SO INSTRUMENTAL, IT IS LIFE
[253]
ITSELF.
[254]
ANY PARENT WOULD GIVE THEIR LIFE
[255]
FOR THEIR CHILD AND WHEN YOU
[256]
HAVE THESE CONSPIRACY THEORIES
[257]
THAT ARE OUT THERE THAT IT IS
[260]
FAKE AND HOME AND THE PARENTS
[262]
ARE ACTORS NONE OF US COULD
[263]
IMAGINE HOW IT IMPACTS A FAMILY
[266]
EMOTIONALLY AND OTHER WISE.
[267]
I'M SURE THEY'RE JUST DEEPLY
[269]
DEPRESSED ABOUT THIS AND YOU
[271]
HAVE HIM OUT THERE SPEWING THIS
[273]
HATRED SO I THINK THERE WILL BE
[274]
ACCOUNTABILITY IN THE OTHER
[276]
TRIALS AND THAT ACCOUNTABILITY
[277]
WILL LOOK MUCH LIKE IT DID HERE,
[278]
WITH A JUROR COMING BACK WITH
[282]
COMPENSATORY DAMAGES AND THEN
[283]
PUNITIVE DAMAGES WHICH ARE
[284]
DESIGNED TO PUNISH TO SEND A
[286]
MESSAGE THIS IS JUST NOT
[287]
SOMETHING THAT YOU SHOULD BE
[288]
DOING AND IT WILL SLOW HIM DOWN
[289]
AN NOT ONLY THAT, BUT DETER
[291]
OTHERS WHO MIGHT SPEW SUCH
[292]
HATRED AND SUCH NEGATIVITY AND
[294]
SUCH FALSEHOODS ABOUT SO
