A jury in a federal civil case to determine whether the dozens of white power extremist leaders and organizations involved in the 2017 Unite the Right rally were liable for conspiring to commit racially motivated violence has now heard all the evidence as the four-week trial in Virginia draws to a close.
Christopher Cantwell, a neo-Nazi podcaster who is representing himself, and the lawyer for two League of the South defendants wrapped up their cases on Wednesday morning by calling witnesses whose testimony they hoped would deflect blame onto left-wing counter-protesters.
Cantwell pursued a fruitless quest to get two plaintiffs who were victims of the racist violence to identify various other counter-protesters as part of an effort to conjure a conspiracy theory involving "Antifa" provocateurs who in his imagination instigated violence when white nationalists swarmed around a small group of counter-protesters, punched and kicked them, and flung lit torches at their feet on Aug. 11.
