Sandy Hook families are seeking money Alex Jones gave to his wife as payment for damages they're owed.

Jones was ordered to pay more than $965 million in damages by a Connecticut jury in his defamation trial over his false claims regarding the Sandy Hook Elementary School mass shooting that took place in 2012, and Jones' company was ordered to pay an additional $473 million to victims' families and an FBI agent.

On Friday, the recipients' attorney David Zensky and Jones's attorney Vickie Driver found themselves in the Southern District of Texas United States Bankruptcy Court in light of Jones filing for bankruptcy twice: once on his own behalf and another on behalf of his company Free Speech Systems.

Zenksy, a partner in his firm, accused Jones of engaging in "financial gymnastics" to avoid paying the families, according to Reuters. The attorney claimed he had a "very strong case" to reverse payments made to Jones's family, including his wife, Erika Wulff Jones, to whom Jones transferred his $3 million estate in Austin, Texas, in February 2022. According to Zenksy, she also received a $1 million payment along the way.

Driver defended that the reversal payments would only be necessary if the payments were improper to begin with. Jones wanted an independent expert to determine whether or not they were, according to the lawyer.

"You can imagine that if someone was to sue their wife over transfers, that's a little hard in the home," Driver said.

"It's time for everyone to put their cards on the table," U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez said at the hearing.

Earlier this month, FSS proposed a bankruptcy plan that would pay an annual salary of $520,000 to Jones and leave $7 million to $10 million to pay creditors annually, including the victims’ families, according to the Associated Press.

The deadline for mediation is July 21. Neither Zensky or Driver responded to the Washington Examiner's request for comment.
