Charlottesville trial: white nationalists ‘celebrated’ violence, lawyers say

Jury expected to begin deliberations in trial of civil lawsuit alleging two dozen conspired to commit violence

White nationalists planned, executed and then celebrated" racially motivated violence that killed one counter-protester and injured dozens, lawyers for nine people hurt during the 2017 Unite The Right" rally in Charlottesville said this week, as they urged jurors to hold some of the country's most infamous white supremacists accountable.

The jury is expected to begin deliberations on Friday in the trial of a civil lawsuit alleging that two dozen white nationalists, neo-Nazis and white supremacist organizations conspired to commit violence during two days of deadly demonstrations that rattled America's conscience.
