      BREAKING: Dan Borden, the first bigot that we identified in the Charlottesville assault of DeAndre Harris was just sentenced to 20 years in prison. On the stand his unapologetically racist mother literally said “Shaun King is fake news.” Her son plead guilty & is on camera.pic.twitter.com/vSwybNThX2

      Most of that time is suspended. He gets about 16 months credit towards 46 months of time served, then the remainder is good behavior time.

      This is making me regret not filing assault charges against him for when he threw a pool cue at me

          That's horrible! I'm glad he missed. Maybe if you file he'll get added time?

          If it happened in Virginia, likely no, as it would probably only be prosecuted as misdemeanor assault, which has a 1 year statute of limitations. I know Nina and Joe and I don't think they'd make a reach for a felony charge here.

          I'm pretty sure Emily is correct here. But I am going to re-look into it. I didn't want to become part of the story and let that be used against my work.

          Pedantic nit pick: it's the state that files charges, not the victim. That said, @zdroberts, I for one really hope you gather witnesses, file a police report, and lobby the police and prosecutor's office to charge this guy.

          Not so in Virginia. Residents can file misdemeanor charges by going directly to a magistrate.

          It's good and bad. DeAndre Harris was charged by a magistrate judge when a white supremacist went to them with bullshit charges...https://visu.news/2017/10/10/warrant-issued-for-deandre-harris-arrest-in-cville/ …
