U.S. Climber Sarah Mallory Geis's Body Recovered from Broad Peak Avalanche

The body of U.S. climber Sarah Mallory Geis, 39, from San Antonio, Texas, was recovered on August 21 from Broad Peak. Geis was among ten climbers who perished in a deadly avalanche on July 30. Her body was the last to be located among the missing victims. Ayaz Shigri, General Secretary of the Alpine Club of Pakistan, confirmed her identification. Volunteers are tasked with moving her body to Base Camp, from where helicopters will transport it to Skardu. Before this expedition, Geis had summited Lobuche East (6,119m) and Mera Peak (6,476m) in Nepal and had completed ice-climbing training in the United States earlier this year. She had closed her Pilates studio to dedicate herself entirely to mountaineering. In a separate incident, Nepali Nawang Thindu Sherpa's body remains on Broad Peak due to the extreme danger of the terrain, while eight other climbers' remains have already been recovered. Additionally, UK-based Pakistani climber Asma Mushtaq died on August 20 while descending Spantik (7,027m) after a suc...

Texas Court Slashes $50 Million Judgment Against Alex Jones to Approximately $6 Million

Texas Court Slashes $50 Million Judgment Against Alex Jones to Approximately $6 Million

A Texas court has reduced a $50 million judgment against Infowars founder Alex Jones to approximately $6 million. This ruling stems from a lawsuit where Jones falsely claimed the 2012 Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting was a hoax. The Texas Third Court of Appeals upheld over $4.1 million in compensatory damages awarded to Sandy Hook parents Neil Heslin and Scarlett Lewis for defamation and emotional distress. However, the court significantly cut the punitive damages from over $45 million to $1.5 million, citing the state's $750,000 cap per plaintiff. The court determined that Heslin and Lewis did not provide sufficient evidence to exceed this cap, and the trial judge improperly allowed higher damages post-trial. This decision does not impact the $1.25 billion judgment against Jones in Connecticut, and he continues to appeal all financial judgments and the liquidation of his company, Free Speech Systems.
