Jones said his testimony made the jury decide.

Alex Jones was ordered to pay $4.1 million to the parents of a victim of the Sandy Hook massacre.
Jones is going through the first phase of his trial. The parents of the victims of the Sandy Hook massacre are going to have a trial to determine how much Jones owes them.
The parents of Jesse Lewis, who was killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, were awarded $4.1 million by Jones. This was less than what the parents wanted. The jury was asked to make Jones pay no more than $8.
I admitted I made a mistake. Jones said in the video that he made a mistake. It's not on purpose. I made an apology to the families. I didn't do it on purpose and the jury understood that.
I trust God. The truth will come out. At the end of the day, I don't have all the money they say I have. This is still a big win for truth.
Jones thinks his testimony woke the jury up to new facts, which is why the damages were lower than the parents wanted.
He appealed to his supporters to buy products from the store in order to help him out.
Jones said in the video that the show was close to being shut down because of its finances.
He told them to get a shirt and a book.

According to legal experts, Jones may be trying to avoid paying the Sandy Hook parents. Jones was cut off by the judge while he was trying to convince her that a $2 million penalty would ruin his show.
