Second Day Of Jury Deliberations In 'Unite The Right' Trial
Newsy
The defendants are accused of conspiring to commit racially motivated violence at the deadly rally in Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017.
Monday marks a second day of jury deliberation in a trial connected to the 2017 "Unite the Right" rally involving White supremacists in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Hundreds of white nationalists descended on Charlottesville on Aug. 11-12, 2017, ostensibly to protest the city’s plans to remove a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.
During a march on the University of Virginia campus, white nationalists surrounded counterprotesters, shouted “Jews will not replace us!” and threw burning tiki torches at them. The next day, an avowed admirer of Adolf Hitler rammed his car into a crowd, killing one woman and injuring 19.
