On Friday, the families of victims of the 2012 Sandy Hook mass shooting asked a Connecticut judge to order Alex Jones to pay hefty punitive damages on top of nearly $1 billion a jury said the conspiracy theorist owes them for falsely claiming the massacre was a hoax.

The families said in the filing that the “historic” scale of Jones’ wrongdoing in the case, his “utter lack of repentance” and clear intention to continue spreading lies about them deserve the highest punishment in the court’s power.

This case against Jones is one of several defamation lawsuits filed by relatives of Sandy Hook victims. Friday’s filing comes as Jones is facing intense scrutiny following recent mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio.
