UPDATE 1-Neo-Nazi gets 2nd life sentence in murder of protester in Virginia

A Virginia state judge on Monday sentenced a self-professed neo-Nazi to a second life prison term for killing a demonstrator when he drove his car into a crowd protesting against white supremacists in Charlottesville two years ago. Charlottesville Circuit Court Judge Richard Moore sentenced James Fields, 22, to life plus 419 years, as recommended by the jury that found him guilty last December of murder plus eight counts of malicious wounding and a hit-and-run offense.

"Mr. Fields, you deserve the sentence the jury gave. What you did was an act of terror," Moore said. Fields, a resident of Maumee, Ohio, who appeared in court on Monday in striped prison garb, has already received a separate life sentence without the possibility of parole after pleading guilty in March to federal hate-crime charges stemming from the violence in Charlottesville on April 12, 2017.

Heather Heyer, 32, one of the counter-demonstrators, was killed in the attack.
