'Commie killer' Daniel Borden enters plea, is found guilty

It continues ...

Another man charged with malicious wounding in the August 12 Market Street Parking Garage beatdown of DeAndre Harris has been convicted.

Daniel Borden, whose local TV station and newspaper have said he was known for his swastika drawings and Nazi salutes in high school, was 18 years old when he traveled from Maumee, Ohio, to Charlottesville for the Unite the Right rally.

He entered an Alford plea in Charlottesville Circuit Court on May 21, which isn’t an admission of guilt, but an acknowledgement that there’s enough evidence to convict him. Judge Rick Moore did, indeed, find him guilty.

Replying to @socialistdogmom

borden entered a plea of guilty to the felony malicious wounding charge. his lawyer clarified that he admits guilt on the assault & battery unlawful wounding charges, but it’s an alford plea to the malicious wounding - “he did not have malice in his heart.”

judge moore disagreed — borden was across the street when the assault began. like ramos, borden ran to join a beating in progress. and unlike the two men already convicted of malicious wounding, borden struck harris with a weapon. the judge found him guilty of malicious wounding.

Let the little bastard rot in prison, of course a fresh faced boy like him will be popular so he'll find lots of new friends there.
