Judge rejects call to shut down Alex Jones' Infowars amid bankruptcy dispute - days after confirmed conspiracy theorist claimed feds were out to get him in hysterical rant

A judge has rejected calls to shut down Alex Jones' Infowars amid an ongoing bankruptcy dispute with relatives of Sandy Hook victims - days after the outspoken conspiracy theorist claimed feds were out to get him in a hysterical rant.

US Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez delivered the ruling in Houston Monday, after lawyers for the families filed an emergency motion the day before. 

The motion was meant to halt a plan that would allow Jones to reorganize his business as they look to cash in on the $1.5 billion in lawsuit verdicts against him. 

Both Jones and his company, Free Speech Systems, filed for bankruptcy reorganization after he lost two lawsuits the cumulatively account for the sum.

It was filed by relatives of victims of the 2012 shooting, which Jones claimed was staged. They sued for defamation and emotional distress, proving successful.

A judge has rejected calls to shut down Alex Jones' Infowars - amid an ongoing bankruptcy dispute with relatives of Sandy Hook victims

On Saturday, the fringe conservative claimed he had to sleep in his show's Dallas studio the night prior, to prevent it from being padlocked by feds.

Lopez on Monday seemingly put those fears to bed - at least temporarily. 

He allowed Jones to keep operating for the next two weeks - while it is decided whether his assets should be liquidated. 

He will address the motion on June 14, when a decision on whether Jones and his company's assets will be seized will be made.

In the interim, Lopez ruled the company, based in Austin, can continue to pay employee wages and operate as usual.

During proceedings Monday, he asked lawyers from both sides to 'take the temperature down' - citing vitriol in their arguments.

Christopher Mattei, a lawyer for the Sandy Hook families, claimed Jones was 'manufacturing a crisis' - pointing to a so-called 'emergency broadcast' seen on his network the day before.

In it, Jones became visibly upset as he said he was battling back unspecified allegations - seemingly stemming from his settled bankruptcy cases,

He also mentioned a trove of 'secret federal files' he said are keeping tabs on him, and a 'Deep State effort to shut down' Jones's website.

The deep state is an alleged secret network of usually nonelected government officials and sometimes private entities operating outside the confines of the law to influence and sway government policy.

Infowars, meanwhile, has long faced flak for false stories, with its creator only recently reinstated to X due to contentious comments. 

He is most notorious for saying the 2012 Sandy Hook massacre that killed 26 was staged, a claim that is decidedly false. 

Moreover, he billed the four-hour-long broadcast as one made in emergency - 'to break down how the Deep State effort to shut down' his website.

If part of Lopez's ruling, liquidation could mean that Jones would have to sell most of what he owns, including his company and its assets, but could still keep his home and other personal belongings exempt from that form of bankruptcy.

As a result, Christopher Mattei, a lawyer for the Sandy Hook families, on Monday claimed Jones was 'manufacturing a crisis' - on erroneously shilling the idea of his network being shut down imminently.

He and others representing the relatives have been unable to reach an agreement with Jones's lawyers in recent months, as proceeds would go to his creditors, including the Sandy Hook families.

Jones' lawyer recently said in court that the cases appear headed to liquidation or may be withdrawn - meaning Jones would be put back in the same position he was in after being handed the $1.5 billion judgement.

The relatives said they were traumatized by Jones' comments and the actions of his followers. 

They testified at the trials about being harassed and threatened by Jones' believers, some of whom confronted the grieving families in person saying the shooting never happened and their children never existed.

Infowars' parent company, Free Speech System employs 44 people, and had nearly $4 million in cash on hand at the end of April. The business made nearly $3.2 million that month - a sum secured by selling the dietary supplements, clothing and other items that Jones promotes on his show.

Also that month, the company listed $1.9 million in expenses.

On Saturday, Jones - despite sobbing at a point - was defiant, saying 'At the end of the day, we’re going to beat these people. 

'I’m not trying to be dramatic here, but it’s been a hard fight. These people hate our children.'

Fifteen minutes into the final hour of the X broadcast, he asserted 'I love this crew,' before growing visibly and cradling his face in hand. 

Meanwhile, Jones has yet to fork over any of the more than billion-dollar sum to any of the victims of the mass shooting, which occurred on December 14, 2012, in Newtown, Connecticut. Twenty-five of the 26 victims are pictured

'I'm so pissed off,' he said in the viral snippet, at that point starting to sob.

Referencing previous points in the broadcast where he exaggerated his depression with crocodile tears, he added, 'I'm trying to cry as a fake thing, but I am so sick of these people,' with his eyes welling up with tears.

'All we're trying to do is save America, and they're f**king us over, over and over again. 

'And it's just so sick - it's sick, it's sick,' he adds, visibly emotional. 

'I want to leave - because it's going to be over, folks.' 

The Texan goes on to insist that 'I'll come back bigger than ever,' before adding, 'But my baby, I'm watching them rape it.'
