July 15 (UPI) -- An Ohio man received a second life sentence Monday for driving his car into a crowd full of counterprotesters during a Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017.
James Alex Fields Jr., 22, must serve life in prison plus 419 years for the incident, which killed Heather Heyer and injured 35 people. Judge Richard Moore handed down the sentence seven months after a jury recommended the punishment for first-degree murder, five counts of aggravated malicious wounding and one count of hit-and-run.
