Three members of white supremacist group get jail time for Charlottesville rally violence

Three white supremacists were sentenced to prison for their involvement in the violence that broke out during the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.

On Friday, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Virginia announced prison sentences to Benjamin Daley, 26, Thomas Gillen, 25, and Michael Miselis, 30, for kicking, chocking and punching counterprotestors. Footage and photos from the event showed the trio assaulting multiple people, including a woman who suffered a severe laceration as a result.
