Unite the Right remains the gift that keeps on giving. The latest revelation is Craig Rutherford Meyer, an engineer from Muncie, Indiana, who more recently has been living in the Seattle, Washington, area. Read on...

Chris Cantwell, the "Crying Nazi" who got famous for his actions during and after the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, VA, in 2017, has now been charged with charges stemming from an incident in which he allegedly strangled a guy in the boarding house where Cantwell has been living.
Also, a fun fact that I learned: Cantwell's dad was apparently one of the air traffic controllers who Reagan fired in 1981 for daring to go on strike. My little brain is all aflutter with "what if" scenarios right now...

“But more than that, he has a history of trying to play the victim when being caught in his violent acts,” Gorcenski told The Independent . “He did this when he was convicted in federal charges for extortion, he did this when he was sued for participating in a violent conspiracy against civil rights in Charlottesville, and he did this when I swore a complaint against him for violently assaulting me with pepper spray at the University of Virginia.”
From Cantwell’s perspective, Gorcenski went on, “his frequent violence is always just and his victims are always liars.”
“Unfortunately for him, there is rarely much overlap between Chris’s world and the real world,” she said. “I hope one day he learns to take accountability for his actions.”

Here's an article with more details on Augustus Invictus' sentencing. Yesterday I left out an important detail from Emily Gorcenski's initial post: most of his five-year sentence is suspended, and he's only slated to spend 9.5 months in jail. He has, of course, already said he'd appeal (in his usual grandstanding style, he's promising to take it to the Supreme Court), but it sounds like he doesn't have much of a case (he's actually a lawyer, but he's also a violent kook, go figure).

Emily Gorcenski, who is way more clued into this than I am, has posted on Bluesky that neo-Nazi and goat's blood-drinker Augustus Sol Invictus has been sentenced to five years for using fire to intimidate during the tiki torch march in Charlottesville on August 11, 2017. However, she also points out that he won't actually go to jail just yet pending appeal. [Edit: Most of his sentence will be suspended, and he's only set to serve 9.5 months at the moment.] Make of it what you will.

On a related note, Augustus Sol Invictus still exists, and he has taken his "using a burning object to intimidate" charge to trial. His lawyer tried, and failed, to argue that a torch isn't a "burning object" because "all that's being burned is the oil" and oil somehow isn't an object. Go figure.
Anyways, Sol Invictus (who wasn't given that name at birth, but picked it I guess because it's the most absurdly pompous thing he could think of) is a lawyer himself, but his track record isn't so hot. He has also admitted to drinking goat's blood and, while he was found not guilty on some really horrible domestic violence charges, there's really nothing about his personality or other public statements to make me think that he's not exactly the kind of person who would do what he was accused of.

Patriot Front leader Thomas Rousseau has pleaded down to a disorderly conduct conviction in his tiki torch trial in Charlottesville. He's now the third participant in the big march on the weekend of Unite the Right to have done so (several others have been convicted, but I've lost track of how many). All were charged under Virginia's anti-KKK statute that bars using fire to intimidate.
The judge accepted the plea "because of Rousseau's lack of a criminal record and the fact that he didn't make physical contact with any counterprotesters" at the Rotunda on the University of Virginia campus on the night of the march. It's true that Rousseau has never been convicted. But he (along with Patriot Front at large and several of its members) has a trial pending in Boston for an assault that took place when they marched there a couple of years ago, and he was lucky to get his personal "conspiracy to riot" charges dropped in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, late last year (although a bunch of other PF members were convicted, including one for having child porn on his phone). It's not a coincidence that the assault in Boston targeted a Black man and the march they were plotting in Coeur d'Alene was targeting a pride event. So sure, Rousseau has a clean record, but it seems completely bonkers for a judge to pretend they don't know that he's obviously going to go out and keep doing the same shit. This is what he does. It's actually his full-time job.
It's not that I'm a fan of putting people in cages. It's just the logic at work here is, well, foolish.

The latest from the Anonymous Comrades Collective is an up close and personal look at Unite the Right torch march veterans Marjorie Jeffrey and Alex Habighorst.
Jeffrey is an academic whose CV includes stints at a variety of right-wing think tanks and media outlets, including the race science-supporting Claremont Institute, the white nationalist American Renaissance, the newly defunct VDare, and Richard Spencer's long-dead Radix journal. She published regularly on Spencer's completely dead website altright[dot]com and eventually became a major alt-right-era influencer, co-founding a Twitter networking group called @fashyfemmes for the purpose of recruiting women for their movement.
Habighorst, Jeffrey's now-husband, is a pretentious racist weenie from Carriere, MS, who is a great example of the libertarian-to-fascist pipeline: once an ardent Ron Paul supporter who moved to DC for college, he worked there with anti-ecology and anti-union "think tanks" and eventually became very close with Richard Spencer, working on some of Spencer's major projects.
This is a really well written article. Long, but worth sticking it out to the end for the section on Jeffrey's parents, who clearly molded their nazi spawn into what she is today.

The short version: this is good news, at least in theory. The plaintiffs who took the organizers of Unite the Right to court have now been awarded $350k in damages each, rather than the $43,750 a previous ruling had given them.
The Fourth District Court of Appeals in Richmond, VA, has partially reversed a previous reduction of punitive damages awarded in the Sines v. Kessler trail.
That trial, which ended in 2021, awarded the plaintiffs $24 million in damages, but a subsequent ruling noted that Virginia law caps damages at $350k. The way the court read the law, the cap applied to all of the plaintiffs collectively, so they were to divide that $350k between them.
The new 3-0 ruling by the 4th district changes that, so that the cap applies to each plaintiff individually. So they're supposed to get $350k each.
However, I tend to think the likelihood that they'll see much of that money remains low. Some of it will likely come via James Fields, the driver of the car that killed Heather Heyer and injured many others. Fields was represented at trial by a lawyer sent by his auto insurance company, because they're the ones who are mostly on the hook for this. So they'll most likely fork over at some point when it's clear they're just throwing good money after bad.
But most of the other defendants have either declared bankruptcy or made themselves extremely scarce since before the trial even started. Richard Spencer comes from a wealthy family (as though that wasn't obvious), and I wouldn't cry if their money were seized, but he seems to have divested himself fairly well, so we'll see how that plays out. I tend to believe that Matthew Heimbach and Matt Parrott don't actually have much money, because who the hell would hire them? Andrew Anglin has disappeared. Chris "the Crying Nazi" Cantwell is most likely legitimately broke due to his completely defective personality. Azzmador is alleged to have died recently after being AWOL for years. In short: probably not much of the additional $2 million they now collectively owe is likely to reach the plaintiffs.
So make of it what you will. This ruling is nice, but I suspect it's unlikely to materially change much for the plaintiffs or anyone else.
