I'm curious to see how this plays out. It's pretty clear from the video evidence that the driver was struck by protestor(s) before he accelerated into the crowd. It could easily be considered self defense. Almost everyone has him already convicted. Even Trump is calling him a murderer (should the president be doing that?). The guy who would've been the defense attorney for the driver was disallowed by the judge saying it was a conflict of interest. The defense attorney was against the statues being removed, that's what the judge said was a conflict of interest. That sounds more like a similarity of interest. I would think a conflict of interest would be someone like a member of antifa, not someone who might be on the defendant's side. And to top it all off the judge assigned a former prosecutor, Denise Lunsford, who has somewhat of a checkered past, to represent the driver.
The next court date is not until Aug 25 so it's going to be awhile before we get any more data on the actual case.
