Fields Jr. sentenced to life in prison in Charlottesville car attack<\/h1>\n<p>By Paul Duggan<br \/>\nThe Washington Post<\/p>\n<p class=\"text \" data-elm-loc=\"1\"><span class=\"dateline\">CHARLOTTESVILLE \u2014<\/span>\u00a0James A. Fields Jr., an avowed neo-Nazi who rammed his car into a group of counterprotesters at a white-supremacist rally, was sentenced to life in prison by a jury Tuesday after a trial that offered an unsparing view of the physical and emotional ruin he caused in this city with a burst of vehicular rage 16 month ago.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"2\">As he had throughout his two-week trial, Fields, 21, sat impassively at the defendant\u2019s table, clad in a powder blue sweater, as the jury delivered its verdict at 12:20 p.m. after about four hours of deliberations that began Monday: life for first-degree murder; 70 years for each of five counts of aggravated malicious wounding; 20 years for each of three counts of malicious wounding; and nine years for leaving the scene of a fatal crash.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"3\">His overall sentence: life plus 419 years and $480,000 in fines.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"4\">The same jury of seven women and five men convicted Fields of those 10 offenses Friday in Charlottesville Circuit Court. In Virginia, trial juries determine what penalties should be meted out within sentencing ranges dictated by law. Judge Richard E. Moore, who said he will formally sentence Fields on March 29, can impose a lesser punishment than the jurors called for but is not allowed to increase the sentences.<\/p>\n<p class=\"interstitial-link \" data-elm-loc=\"5\"><i>[<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/public-safety\/jury-set-to-begin-deliberations-in-james-a-fields-jr-car-ramming-trial\/2018\/12\/06\/65d38748-f9b3-11e8-8c9a-860ce2a8148f_story.html?utm_term=.cf2cf1d4d83d\">Avowed neo-Nazi convicted of first-degree murder in car ramming<\/a>]<\/i><\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"6\">Fields, whose psychiatric disorders dating to early childhood were detailed in court by a mental health expert, did not deny that he intentionally accelerated his Dodge Challenger into a group of counter-protesters at the \u201cUnite the Right\u201d rally on Aug. 12, 2017. His lawyers contended that he was afraid about his safety and acted to protect himself. But jurors, in issuing 10 guilty verdicts last week, rejected that argument.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inline-content inline-video\" data-elm-loc=\"7\">\n<div id=\"blurb-powa-5d9cac0a-9bfb-11e8-a8d8-9b4c13286d6b-0\" class=\"powa-blurb-wrap powa-blurb inline-video-caption franklin-light\">\n<p><span class=\"powa-tease franklin-light\">One year after violent protests in Charlottesville, witnesses and victims reflect on the day a Nazi sympathizer allegedly plowed his car into counter-protesters.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"powa-byline franklin-light\">(Joyce Koh\/The Washington Post)<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"8\">One of the anti-racism demonstrators, Heather Heyer, 32, who worked for a local law firm, was killed in the crash and 35 others were hurt, many grievously.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"9\">Fields also faces a separate federal trial for alleged hate crimes related to the incident, including one offense that carries a possible death sentence. No trial date has been set, and the Justice Department has not said whether it will seek capital punishment.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"10\">In the meantime, Fields will be held in a state penitentiary, where an inmate who has served a certain amount of a sentence can petition for geriatric release after age 60. Otherwise, Virginia does not allow parole for felonies committed after the mid-1990s.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"11\">Several of the injured, testifying at Fields\u2019s trial and sentencing hearing here, described lasting physical wounds, psychological anguish and financial distress.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"12\">They spoke of shattered bones and debilitating nerve damage from which they might never fully recover; of nightmares and social isolation caused by post-traumatic stress disorder; and of crushing medical bills from multiple surgeries that have depleted their insurance and could burden them far into the future.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"12\">Heyer\u2019s mother, Susan Bro, told the jury Monday that after her daughter\u2019s death, she had trouble finding a recent photo of her and Heyer. She said she realized that the two seldom posed for pictures together, thinking they did not need mementos, \u201cbecause we just took it for granted that we\u2019d be around for each other for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"16\">In December 2017, four months after the deadly chaos at a downtown Charlottesville street corner, Bro said, she carried her artificial Christmas tree to a table in her home but could not muster the will to set it up. \u201cThis year, the trial has reopened the wounds,\u201d she testified, \u201cand I\u2019m not sure I\u2019m going to be able to get the tree out of the shed, frankly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"17\">Hundreds of white supremacists descended on the city for the rally, nominally in support of Charlottesville\u2019s statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee, which officials plan to take down if they win a pending lawsuit over the issue.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"18\">Chanting racist and anti-Semitic slogans as they marched in the streets, the white supremacists violently clashed with counter-protesters for hours. Photos and video of the mayhem \u2014 including images of broken bodies propelled in the air by Fields\u2019s speeding Dodge \u2014 were viewed worldwide, galvanizing public attention on emboldened ethno-fascists in the early months of the Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"19\">Fields, who drove alone to the rally from his apartment in Maumee, Ohio, had long been fascinated by Nazi Germany, espousing admiration for the militarism and racial-purity doctrine of the Third Reich, acquaintances have said in interviews. But his ideology did not come up in testimony at the trial, which focused mainly on his actions that August afternoon and the devastating consequences for his victims.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"20\">Daniel Murrie, a University of Virginia psychologist who reviewed thousands of pages of Fields\u2019s school and mental health records, testified that bipolar disorder was diagnosed when Fields was 6 and that, as an adolescent, he was found to have schizoid personality disorder. Murrie said Fields was housed in psychiatric facilities for three stretches before his 15th birthday.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"21\">He told the jury that Fields, who did not take the witness stand, has been given to angry, sometimes violent outbursts since before he could walk A loner and social misfit, he washed out of Army basic training after graduating from high school, then worked at low-end jobs, playing video games for dozens of hours a week, Murrie said.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"22\">But Murrie, whose court-ordered evaluation of Fields included about 14 hours of jailhouse interviews, testified that Fields did not meet Virginia\u2019s legal definition for not guilty by reason of insanity. And Fields did not mount such a defense.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"23\">To be acquitted on the basis of insanity, a defendant must show that he did not understand the difference between right and wrong at the time of the offense or was mentally unable to control his actions.<\/p>\n<p data-elm-loc=\"23\">___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/public-safety\/james-a-fields-jr-sentenced-to-life-in-prison-in-charlottesville-car-attack\/2018\/12\/11\/8b205a90-fcc8-11e8-ad40-cdfd0e0dd65a_story.html?utm_term=.808583d8a9ec\">https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/public-safety\/james-a-fields-jr-sentenced-to-life-in-prison-in-charlottesville-car-attack\/2018\/12\/11\/8b205a90-fcc8-11e8-ad40-cdfd0e0dd65a_story.html?utm_term=.808583d8a9ec<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Patriot Movement Has Been Put On Notice&#8212;BIG TIME!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":1,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29133","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29133","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=29133"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29133\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=29133"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=29133"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cosmicconvergence.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=29133"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
