On Monday, a judge denied bond for James Alex Fields Jr., who faces a second-degree murder charge, three counts of malicious wounding, and a hit and run charge for driving his vehicle into a group of counter-protesters in Charlottesville this weekend. In a video conference with the judge, Fields said he could not afford to hire an attorney. However, in a delicious stroke of destiny, the public defender happens to be related to one of the victims. No word yet, on how this conflict will be managed or who will represent the murder suspect. Fields has a “control date” for a preliminary hearing to be scheduled on Aug 25.
Outside the court, two Fields' supporters were shouting when they were met by counter-protesters shouting "Nazis go home." The police immediately disbursed the groups.
He is a violent White Supremacist terrorist murderer.
Yet, national media is treating him like a like petulant child who needs a timeout. https://t.co/ne8hK4fsyd

While Fields may find himself in a pickle at the moment, the way supremacy is set up, we expect to see a fundraising account erected for his legal defense in 5, 4, 3, 2….
