Republicans take a $25,000,000 hit jury award -Charlottsville.

Spencer, Kessler, Cantwell and other white supremacists found liable in deadly Unite

CHARLOTTESVILLE — More than a dozen of the nation’s most prominent white supremacists and hate groups conspired to intimidate, harass or commit acts of violence during 2017′s deadly Unite the Right rally, according to a jury that also decided the men and their racist organizations should pay $26 million in damages.

The 11 jurors couldn’t come to an agreement on two federal conspiracy claims, but they found that every defendant — including former alt-right leader Richard Spencer, rally organizer Jason Kessler and Christopher Cantwell, dubbed the “crying Nazi” after sharing a video of himself weeping — was liable under Virginia law.

The verdict was a clear rebuke of the defendants — a mix of white nationalists, neo-Nazis and Confederate sympathizers. They were found under Virginia law to have engaged in a conspiracy that led to injuries during the rally. The “Unite the Right” march began as a demonstration over the removal of a Confederate statue and led to the death of the counterprotester Heather Heyer, 32, when she was struck by a car driven by one of the defendants.

no, says coverage of the trial. many of the defendants are in prison with life terms and the organizations have little or no money/assets.

so a big show for nothing. except the plaintiffs still have to pay their sort of successful lawyers.

in the end, its lawyers that win.

Nazis lost. Another loss for you.
 
The Unite the Right rally was a place for Republican think tanks and interest groups like white supremacists and Nazis. ;)

Big L for Repukes. I bet you don't hear about this on Fox News unless it is to bemoan it, and we all know why.
