The presiding judge, William Barkley, of malicious illegal use of gas and unlawful injury by acid, saying so many people had pepper spray that night that some attacks could not be definitively attributed to Cantwell.

Cantwell got two fleeting moments in the public eye after August鈥檚 violent Unite the Right rally, during which three people died and dozens more were injured. First, he appeared in a widely seen piece from VICE where he outlined his nauseating ideas about race, and told reporter Elle Reeve that the counter protesters struck by the car driven by James Alex Fields were 鈥渟tupid animals who don鈥檛 pay attention.鈥� The tough-guy image he put on for VICE crumbled just a few days later, when he posted a tearful video sharing his anxiety about being wanted by police. The internet subsequently dubbed him the 鈥淐rying Nazi.鈥�

Citing this humiliation and his intemperate conduct in the VICE video, some on the far right accused him of being an FBI plant or other subversive infiltrator. But many of his comrades in hate have stood by him. Since turning himself in on August 24, he has posted regular updates to his podcast, Radical Agenda, often joined by fellow racists like The Right Stuff鈥檚 Mike 鈥淓noch鈥� Peinovich. Neo-Nazi website The Daily Stormer has shared links to some of those episodes, and editor Andrew Anglin has posted pleas for readers to donate to Cantwell鈥檚 legal defense. In October, David Duke hosted Cantwell on his radio show. Allies and supporters in the courtroom included Jason Kessler, the Charlottesville native and primary Unite the Right organizer with legal troubles of his own, and Elliott Kline aka Eli Mosley of Identity Evropa.

, Cantwell testified, 鈥淚 was hoping very much to avoid violence.鈥� That claim directly contradicts his earlier declaration to VICE in Charlottesville, when he said he carries a pistol and goes to the gym in order to, 鈥渕ake myself more capable of violence.鈥�

His attorney, Elmer Woodward, drew laughter for some of his courtroom antics. When witness Kristopher Goad testified that he was unable to leave the park because he was, 鈥渟urrounded 360 degrees by hundreds of people,鈥� Woodward replied, 鈥淵ou could have said excuse me, couldn鈥檛 you?鈥�

Later, he remarked that the cause of victims鈥� injuries could have been smoke from the tiki torches, instead of chemicals from Cantwell鈥檚 can of pepper spray.

After the hearing, Cantwell was still in jail. It鈥檚 likely he will seek bond again prior to when the charge comes before the grand jury, but he鈥檒l have to hope the courts have had a major change of heart. , his $25,000 bond was denied after the judge agreed with prosecutors, who deemed him a flight risk and a risk to public safety.
