- rob74 2y agoOk, then I would be very surprised (positively) if it weren't overturned by SCOTUS (if it goes that far).
- Clubber 2y agoThe damages seem excessive to me. If he were the shooter, it would be justified, but he was not. I'm surprised the appellate court upheld it. Don't get me wrong, what Jones did was pretty horrible, especially after having just lost their kids right before Christmas. The presents were still under the tree. I couldn't imagine, but he wasn't the shooter. If it stands, it would also set a pretty bad precedent. Trump could sue MSNBC for $1B for their RussiaGate reporting. Gaetz could sue ABC for $1B their View reporting, etc. They would be effectively shut down. Or maybe it would be good. It would force news organizations to not be so sloppy.
