Photo: Nestled on the western edge of Terlingua, just a stone’s throw away from Lajitas International Airport and Golf Resort, lies a hidden gem with deep historic roots. The Villa de La Mina, a former working mining town from the early 1900s, has officially been listed for sale. This iconic property, situated only a mile off State Hwy. 170, boasts a sprawling complex of approximately 20 buildings and an expansive mine and cavern network. We have no information on any specific property Jones is looking to acquire. He or anyone else can buy Villa de la Mina for just under $2 million.
Two Terlingua Tipsters Say Jones Looking for Land
In a twist that has left the local community abuzz with speculation, rumors are swirling that controversial radio show host and conspiracy theorist, Alex Jones, may be in the early stages of shopping for acreage in the remote desert community of Terlingua, Texas.
The unconfirmed news comes courtesy of two Terlingua residents who reached out to Big Bend Times with this intriguing tip. While the purpose behind this potential land acquisition remains shrouded in mystery, our team is actively working to uncover more details on this surprising development.
Infowars.com, the news and conspiracy theory website owned by Alex Jones, has not provided any official statement regarding this rumored land purchase. Big Bend Times tried to reach out to Jones through Infowars.com but encountered technical difficulties, as the website displayed a “Bad Gateway Error 502 Cloudflare,” while other websites were functioning normally. We will continue our efforts to contact the parties involved and will update our readers as more information becomes available.

This latest news follows recent headlines surrounding Jones, particularly regarding his ongoing bankruptcy case and its connection to the Sandy Hook tragedy. According to the most recent Associated Press reporting, Jones’ bankruptcy plan would pay a minimum total of $55 million to Sandy Hook families over the course of 10 years, a far cry from the $1.5 billion awarded to the relatives in lawsuits against Jones. These lawsuits stemmed from his controversial claims about the 2012 Newtown school shooting being a hoax.
It’s worth noting that prior to these developments, a judge ruled against Jones, preventing him from using bankruptcy as a means to evade paying compensation to the Sandy Hook families.
As Terlingua residents and the broader community eagerly await confirmation or more substantial information regarding Alex Jones’ potential land purchase, the rumor mill continues to churn with speculation. In the coming days, Big Bend Times will strive to bring you the latest updates on this intriguing story. Stay tuned for more developments as they unfold.

Good bye Dark Sky designations with this weirdo.
