"Wtf does his alleged violations of his discovery obligations have to do with the massive (absurd) size of this judgment?"
Here, poster Again, let's walk through this together.
K?
"violating his obligations to the court".....obligated the judge to a default judgment. Accordingly, the jury needed only to believe Jones caused harm to the parents.
So they heard the parents on the stand. They heard what law enforcement saw when they entered the killing floors.
In the end this verdict for almost a billion dollars tells us:
- That the jury hated Alex Jones;
- And.... that they thought he grievously harmed the parents;
- And...they wanted to send a message, to discourage others of that character.
That's it in a nutshell
