Jury begins deliberations in Charlottesville Unite the Right civil trial
CNN
A jury began deliberations Friday in the civil case involving White nationalists who organized a two-day rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017 when a protester killed a person and others were injured in the chaos.
The Unite the Right rally was held on August 11 and 12 in 2017 to oppose the planned removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. As the violence unfolded, it reached a tipping point when James Fields -- who was protesting the statue's removal -- drove his car through a crowd of counterprotesters, injuring dozens and killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer.
In the days and weeks leading up Hunter Biden’s trial on felony gun charges, President Joe Biden made little attempt to distance himself from his son. Instead, Hunter Biden was seen at the White House and in Delaware at his father’s side amid what the president’s allies acknowledge is a difficult moment for both men.
