RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A white supremacist who killed a woman when he rammed his car into a crowd at the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville has been fined for threatening a correctional officer and brandishing a weapon at the prison where he is serving a life sentence. Federal prosecutors disclosed the misconduct incidents in court documents and asked a judge to order him to turn over $650 from his inmate trust account to make a court-ordered payment toward restitution to the victims of his crimes. He had asked in a hand-written motion that he only be required to turn over $298.
