Imagine, more than five years after you had your glory, taking over an elitist college campus to show your racial superiority, and you’re now resting on those laurels with your polo shirt and khakis folded and in a drawer with your hood and robe when… there’s a knock at the trailer door. Justice doesn’t rest: A Virginia grand jury indicted three participants in the infamous tiki torch march that crossed the campus of the University of Virginia in Charlottesville in 2017, saying the defendants carried lighted objects in an attempt to intimidate, CNN reports.
The indictments by the Albemarle County grand jury indicted Dallas Medina of Ravenna, Ohio; Wil Zachary Smith of Nacona, Texas; and Tyler Bradley Dykes of Bluffton, South Carolina in February. Smith had been arrested in January and continues to be in custody. Medina was arrested Monday and Dykes was arrested Friday. Commonwealth attorney James Hingeley campaigned in 2020 on pursuing charges against many of the participants in the white nationalist Unite the Right rally, something his predecessor declined to do.
