人兽性交: Sentencing of James Alex Fields Jr., who killed Heather Heyer at 鈥楿nite the Right,鈥� will not heal victims or their families
James Alex Fields Jr., who was sentenced to life in prison today for murdering a woman who was protesting a white supremacist rally two years ago, is a remorseless killer and a domestic terrorist.
When Fields slammed his Dodge Challenger into a group of counterprotesters following 2017鈥檚 鈥淯nite the Right鈥� white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia 鈥� and injuring at least 30 others 鈥� he helped define one of the many flashpoints of violent white supremacy in the Trump era.
This was no random act. Fields鈥� history is littered with texts, social media posts聽and first-person accounts of his long-standing hatred of Jews, African Americans聽and essentially all non-white people. His appreciation for Nazi ideology goes back to middle school, with his own family reporting threats of violence to local law enforcement as early as 2010.
Though Fields鈥� sentencing may prevent him from committing future acts of public violence, the trauma he has already inflicted upon his victims, their families and their communities will likely never fully heal.
