Little-known fact about Richard Preston, the KKK member who is about to be sentenced for firing a gun in Charlottesville on 8/12: We have him on camera drawing his gun and pointing it at people earlier during arguments. He maybe could have been charged with brandishing.
Brandishing is also a misdemeanor. Well, Class 6 felony for doing it where he did it. But still not as strong a charge, and unlikely to add much.
