While all that’s going on, your child’s grave has been found to be defaced and pissed on regularly. That’s what happened to some of the parents. The lawsuit is for damages.

yes, but my original point is that it IS a defamation lawsuit
I looked it up to clarify: "The award is the largest the Texas conspiracy theorist has been ordered to pay as part of three defamation lawsuits against him for falsely claiming that the 2012 school shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, was a hoax"

I didn't make any inference as to the emotional impact of the lies one way or the other, not trying to minimize that
