“This really will be the first time the entire story of Charlottesville will be told out loud,” said Karen Dunn, co–lead counsel for the plaintiffs.
Heidi Beirich, a cofounder of the Global Project against Hate and Extremism who previously worked with the Southern Poverty Law Center to take violent white supremacist groups to court, told BuzzFeed News that the Charlottesville case is unique in its size and ambition.
Marcus Martin and his wife, Marissa Blair , are among them. They had gone with Blair’s coworker, Heyer, to join activists countering the white supremacists in Charlottesville on Aug. 12, 2017. When Fields’s gray Dodge Challenger plowed into the group of activists, Martin was able to push Blair out of the way, but he was hit. A Pulitzer Prize–winning photograph of the incident shows Martin, wearing a white shirt and red-and-white Air Jordan sneakers, suspended in midair after being struck.
The other plaintiffs all lived, studied, or worked in Charlottesville at the time. They joined others in protesting against the white supremacists and suffered physical injuries and psychological trauma from the experience. “Thus far, after more than two years of pleadings, discovery, motions, and conferences, plaintiffs have yet to produce a single piece of evidence to support their claim of a conspiracy to commit violence in Charlottesville,” he said. “If not for the fact that the defendants are mostly white supremacists, the suit would have been dismissed years ago.”
