How is this not enforced by the court that ordered it? It should be 30 days and you end up in prison.
People are kept in prison without a conviction, for not affording bail. Owing a thousand times the lifetime earnings of other people should at the very least mean all your accounts and holdings are frozen, and you can’t spend anything without getting independent approval every time.
The settlement payout is on hold pending his bankruptcy case is why they haven’t done something like this. However, lawyers for the families are in fact trying to have his assets placed in a trust or have the bankruptcy case cancelled outright because of his spending. By design it’s a slow, complicated process where Jones has lots of legal (and illegal) avenues to delay paying. Fortunately Jones is so stupid and outlandish that he’s likely hurting his own case so I wouldn’t be surprised if a judge slaps him with more severe sanctions.
his bankruptcy case
The fact that he can simultaneously have a bankruptcy case and spend nearly six figures in a single month is absolutely infuriating.
its almost like our bankruptcy system is built by rich people for rich people.
Yes, at very least that!
They should put him under a conservatorship.
There’s a bankruptcy process ongoing. He’s trying to trick it but is failing.
Dude spends more in a month than I make in a year and a half. Fuckin eat these pigs.
Plenty of people out there spend more money just on soap and diffusers, than you or I make in a year and a half, lol
Can’t wait for the roast Jeff Bezos and Warren Buffet pie!
Rich people are never held to account, ever.
which is why people want to be rich. it’s way bigger benefit than the money.
people think about all the maga types that are ‘one day millionaires’. nah, it’s not about being rich for money, it’s about they back a guy who does the stuff they wish they could personally do. like be rabidly racist in public without consequence
ppp loans were/are the best example. Handout billions citizens with zero accountability.
Forgive some rich asshole who took out 5 false PPP loans? Mmm okay
Forgive your neighbors student debt they’ve been chipping away at for 10 years? Fuck that why should they get anything?!
Fucking seize his assets and jail him for contempt already.
No, no. That suggests Rich people can get in trouble for doing dumb things. Can’t be having them treated like plebs?
And a pound of flesh.
He can spare it.
Piece of shit
Jones’ spending in July, which was up from nearly $75,000 in April, included his monthly $15,000 payment to his wife, Erika Wulff Jones — payouts called “fraudulent transfers” by lawyers for the Sandy Hook families. Jones says they’re required under a prenuptial agreement.
…what?
Someone really needs to sic a team of forensic accountants on this asshole.
I’d like to see what those people spend all that money on.
I mean I luckily don’t often have trouble making ends meet, but apart from buying a place to live in, I don’t know how they can spend that much. I currently have to spend a lot because of renovation work, but I suspect that’s not the reason. In normal times, my “big” spends would be… maybe big home appliances, or vacations (that’s a European thing)… If I went really wild, I could maybe conceive of spending… 15 000€ in a month (not that I could really afford it, but at least I could find stuff to do it).
Beyond that, I just don’t have any ideas.
Lawyers.
Probably at just one fast food restaurant.
Sad to see for the families. They deserve better.
I’ve never wished death on someone before but that might be broken soon.
Can’t we just make him eat a bag of those chips in that challenge?
That dickbag and his priorities… 🤬🤬🤬
He’s tickled at his own headline.
