Right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones could face two more defamation trials in 2023, under an agreement meant to put a price on lies that Jones told about school shootings in the U.S. Jones' attorneys previewed the agreement at a Wednesday court hearing in Houston, telling U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez that it allows Jones to avoid further trials if he completes a bankruptcy settlement by Aug. 31. Jones filed for bankruptcy in December after he and his company Free Speech Systems LLC were found liable for a combined $1.5 billion in two previous defamation trials brought by the parents of children killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school massacre.
