James Alex Fields Jr., the white nationalist accused of deliberately plowing his car into a crowd of counter-protesters during the 2017 Charlottesville white-nationalist rally, was found guilty on Friday of murdering one of those counter-protesters.

Fields, 21, an Ohio native, was charged with first-degree murder last year following the hit-and-run attack, which killed 32-year-old Heather Heyer and injured dozens other anti-racism protesters who ran counter to the “Unite the Right” rally. He was found guilty on that top charge.

Fields was also found guilty on five counts of aggravated malicious wounding, three counts of malicious wounding, and one count of failing to stop at an accident involving a death.

All of this on top of the 30-count hate crime indictment brought against him by the Department of Justice...

1. Did he cry?

[ProudLib72]

12. No, no, we shouldn't be mean. We must remain civil

So try this one:

28. Why do they consider violence acceptable protest.His fellow

marchers should all be held accountable as accessories. They all attended with committing violence as an agenda

[ProudLib72]

29. Yeah, I recall about three others whom we heard about immediately afterwards

We heard they were arrested, but that was the end of it. I distinctly remember the guy who beat the black dude with the stick, but either they didn't report the outcome or he got off.

2. His hatred is going to send him away for life.

Good. He is a piece of filth.

3. justice for heather

[malaise]

4. Throw away the key

One of the Con's good people

[dalton99a]

5. Give him life without possibility of parole

[ProudLib72]

13. +1

Let him rot in prison!

[Solly Mack]

23. Yes

[MoonRiver]

6. Justice for Heather!

[lilactime]

7. K&R for justice.

[LudwigPastorius]

8. They like crying nazis in jail.

[Codifer]

25. Some do....

especially the aryan brotherhood. He will be right at home with them. The prison system is a nest which nurtures evil in so many ways.

[Downtown Hound]

9. Yes! And they only started deliberations today.

That didn't take long. Shows what a pile of crap his whole "I felt threatened" defense really was. Now throw this piece of filth in a hole and never let him out.

[MontanaMama]

10. Good.

Buh bye murderer. Set an example with this POS for all the other nazis to see.

[dameatball]

11. Good. Some small measure of justice for her family. But what a waste.

[Baltimike]

14. YESSSS!!!!!!! nt

[Persondem]

15. Good. Another nazi goes down. K & R nt

[paleotn]

16. Save your tears, nazis....

You're going inside for a long, long, long time. You'll need them.

17. Good

As it should be. Justice for Heather and everyone else in the crowd he mowed down.
Hate corrodes the vessel it's in, and he's started to receive his karma.

[Racerdog1]

18. Chickenshit bastard

Fucking asshole will never survive prison. No big loss.

[Honeycombe8]

19. Good. He needs to be off the streets. And to be punished for his crimes. Hope he gets life. nt

[smirkymonkey]

20. Good! I hope his sentence is particularly harsh.

It won't bring Heather back, but at least there is some kind of justice for the horrible crime he committed. This will show him and others like him that they can't just go out and kill those who politically disagree with them and get away with it. And that their hero Donald Trump is NOT coming to their rescue!

[jmowreader]

24. The choices are execution and life without parole

Executing him makes him a martyr to the cause.

He's also staring at 30 federal hate charges.

I'd say life without parole in ADX Florence is a perfect sentence. And add another enhancement: decorate his cell with photos of the people he drove his car into, and make sure there's a 30x40 portrait of Heather Heyer hanging over his bed.

[Yonnie3]

27. Perhaps these choices will be available after the federal trial.

They are not available for the trial just completed in Charlottesville. Sentencing will be suggested by the jury Monday and decided by the judge. My guess is the jury will want around 200 years and the judge will order 100 years.

[gademocrat7]

21. Justice prevailed.

[ZeroSomeBrains]

22. Great news

This piece of scum should be locked up for life.

[Sneederbunk]

26. No Dotard, you cannot pardon this guy.
