Court got underway around 1 p.m., and first up was Richard Wilson Preston. The 52-year-old Maryland man is a member of the Ku Klux Klan, and is accused of firing a gun during the clashes between Unite the Right supporters and protesters. The American Civil Liberties Union says it caught the incident on video.
Preston was arrested on August 26 in Towson, Maryland. He told the Baltimore Sun he came to Charlottesville as a member of a militia intending to protect rally participants.
Judge Downer certified a charge of discharging a firearm within 1,000 feet of a school around 3 p.m. A grand jury is now scheduled to take up Preston's charge on Monday, December 18.
The three other defendants set to go before the judge are James Alex Fields Jr., Alex Michael Ramos, and Jacob Scott Goodwin.

Since they seem to love plenty of paragraphs, I can't quote much here. Plenty more at: http://www.nbc29.com/story/37067522/charlottesville-circuit-court-12-14-2017 and it is being updated.
