other Lanes employees to listen to it as well, and that they simply could not make out

20. Lawrence reiterated this in a follow-up call to Evans the following day, January 19, 2018.
She said that she and others at Lanes Court Reporters had listened to the portion labeled
“(unintelligible)” and could not make out what Antony had said.
21. Other than Antony’s unintelligible request, no other portion of the Fields preliminary hearing
22. Besides Antony’s unintelligible request, no other portion of the Fields preliminary hearing
transcript provided by Lanes Court Reporters shows the Commonwealth’s Attorney issuing a
motion “to withdraw all exhibits”, or otherwise asking the court to seal the record.

When Evans picked up the transcript from the Lanes Court Reporters’ offices in Charlottesville,
Lawrence told Evans that she had transcribed Fields’s preliminary hearing herself.

Evans’s VFOIA Requests to the City of Charlottesville
23. On December 15, 2017, Evans sent his first VFOIA request to the City, asking to “inspect or
obtain copies” of the two videos that were played in court and reported on by the media and
by Kessler.20
24. The City did not respond “within five working days”, as is required by VFOIA.21
25. After receiving no response to his first request, Evans sent a second VFOIA request to the
City on December 26, 2017, again asking to “inspect or receive copies” of the two videos
that were shown in court. In this second request, Evans outlined certain issues with the
media and Kessler’s reporting on the two videos that can only be cured by a broader release
of the videos.22
26. On December 27, 2017, the City, acting through Lieutenant Cheryl Sandridge of the
extension period provided by VFOIA § 2.2-3704(B)(4), but did not explain why it was “not
practically possible” to respond within five working days, or “specify the conditions that
requires.23
27. The City finally responded to Evans’s VFOIA requests by email on January 2, 2018.
Sandridge, acting in her official capacity, said “The records that you request are Criminal

36. In the January 5, 2018 phone conversation, Evans asked Platania and Antony to give him
access to the two videos that were shown at Fields’s preliminary hearing.
37. This request, although made over the telephone, qualifies as a formal request under VFOIA.27
38. In the January 5, 2018 phone conversation, Commonwealth’s Attorney Platania responded to
Evans’s VFOIA request by affirmatively declining to give Evans access to the two videos.

39. On January 18, 2018, Evans sent a second VFOIA request, this time in writing, to
second request was substantively identical to the two requests issued to the City on
December 15 and December 26, 2017, respectively, and asked “to inspect or receive copies”
of the two videos that were played at Fields’s preliminary hearing on December 14, 2017.28
40. On January 24, 2018, Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney Antony responded to Evans’s
second VFOIA request. Citing the same provision as the City – VFOIA § 2.2-3706(A)(2)(a)
– she said that the Commonwealth’s attorney was, “in its discretion,” choosing not to

District Court about the status of the Fields case file. He was told that the General District
Court no longer had any file because the case had been certified to this Circuit Court.
42. On January 16, 2018, Evans visited the Charlottesville General District Court clerk’s office
and confirmed that they had nothing on the Fields case in their records room.
43. In a January 5, 2018 telephone conversation, Evans asked the clerk’s office of this Circuit
Court about the status of the Fields case file, and specifically asked whether this Circuit
Court has the two videos that were played at Fields’s preliminary hearing in its case file. A
female employee in the clerk’s office, who said that she was communicating with the clerk of
this Circuit Court, Llezelle Dugger, during the call, affirmatively told Evans that this Circuit

The Media Reports Describing the Videos Shown at the Preliminary Hearing
45. On the evening of December 14, 2017, reporters from CNN, the Washington Post, the New
York Times, and the Associated Press filed stories on what transpired at Fields’s preliminary
hearing.

12 incident.31

47. Also on the evening of December 14, Kessler published a video on his Twitter account and
on his YouTube Channel in which he provided his description and interpretation of the video
48. The December 14 stories filed by CNN, the Washington Post, and the Associated Press
describe Fields’s Dodge Challenger, as (apparently) shown in the two videos, arriving in the
vicinity of the counter-protesters at the intersection of 4th Street and Water Street in
downtown Charlottesville, pausing, reversing north up 4th Street, and then accelerating
a. CNN: “The Dodge Challenger crept up, reversed, then accelerated toward the
crowd.”33

speed. It then backed up, traveling more than a block, before accelerating forward at a

49. Prior to the publication of the December 14 stories filed by CNN, the Washington Post, and
the Associated Press, there was little public evidence of Fields’s Dodge Challenger arriving
in the vicinity of the crowd, stopping, and reversing up 4th Street before accelerating towards
the protesters. Indeed, in the days after the August 12 incident, eyewitnesses told the media
and the public that the Dodge drove straight into the crowd, without stopping or reversing up
50. One such eyewitness was Brennan Gilmore, who witnessed the August 12 incident from the
vicinity of 4th Street and Main Street, one block north of where the counter-protesters had
assembled. Gilmore has given numerous national media interviews, attended conferences,
51. For example, Gilmore described what he saw to MSNBC on August 13, 2017, the day after
52. On August 23, 2017, Gilmore repeated the same story on PBS NewsHour:
“Not long after [the state of emergency was declared], I found myself on a side
street – 4th Street in Charlottesville – with a couple of friends, and I witnessed
a crowd of counter-protesters, of anti-racist protesters, coming up 4th Street,

and I began to film their march. And they were in a celebratory mood
thinking that after the state of emergency, these white supremacist and nazi
groups had been banished from Charlottesville.
53. On information and belief, Gilmore has never, in any of his numerous media interviews, op-
eds, and other public comments, described seeing the Dodge Challenger stopping and
pausing in the vicinity of the protesters and reversing up 4th Street prior to accelerating
54. Eyewitness video taken the day of the incident and released on the internet and to the media
appeared to confirm that the Dodge drove straight at the crowd, without stopping or reversing
55. One such eyewitness video was uploaded to Twitter by Brennan Gilmore. This video, which
shows the Dodge careening toward and colliding with the crowd without stopping or
reversing beforehand, has been viewed over six million times on Gilmore’s Twitter account
alone.38
56. The publication of the media’s stories about the videos shown at Fields’s preliminary hearing
add to the public confusion and uncertainty regarding the August 12 incident.

57. The national media’s written descriptions of videos that are otherwise hidden from view do
not penetrate the public consciousness like a contemporaneous video like Gilmore’s that is
58. The news stories describing the two videos shown at Fields’s preliminary hearing do not
reproduce the content of the videos in text form, and are not comparable to the written
transcript of an audio recording of a conversation in, for example, a deposition or 911 call.
59. In an important respect, the descriptions of the two videos provided by CNN and the
Washington Post contradict one another, further adding to the confusion surrounding the
August 12 incident.
a. CNN says that the videos show the Dodge “stopping about a block and a half away
b. The Washington Post says that the Dodge “approached the Camry from behind . . .
then backed up, traveling more than a block, before accelerating forward at a rapid
c. Read together, these stories describe the Dodge “stopping a block and a half away
from protesters” [CNN], then “back[ing] up, traveling more than a block, before
d. In other words, the CNN and Washington Post articles, read together, indicate that the
Dodge started accelerating towards the protesters from over 2.5 blocks away (1.5

40
Paul Duggan, Charge upgraded to first-degree murder for driver accused of ramming Charlottesville
crowd, Washington Post, Dec. 14, 2017 [Attachment 4(c)].
17
e. The descriptions provided by CNN and the Washington Post cannot both be accurate
because there are only two blocks of Fourth Street between Market Street and Water
Street. One cannot stop “a block and a half away” and back up “more than a block”
60. The Washington Post’s description of the two videos contradicts other videos filmed on
August 12, further muddling the public record of the car attack.
a. The Washington Post says that the helicopter video shows a black pickup truck
arriving first at the intersection of 4th Street and Water Street, before the maroon van,
b. At least three other videos in the public record contradict this account – one filmed by
a roving reporter, one filmed by an anonymous citizen, and one filmed from a camera
drone. These three videos in the public record show the maroon van arriving at the
intersection of 4th Street and Water Street first, before the black pickup truck, at least
five minutes prior to the car attack and well before the counter-protesters arrived on
the scene.
61. The best way to clarify the public record is to return the two videos to the Fields case file or,
41
See Paul Duggan, Charge upgraded to first-degree murder for driver accused of ramming
Charlottesville crowd, Washington Post, Dec. 14, 2017 [Attachment 4(c)] (“A black pickup truck
approaching the crowd pulled to the side of the road. A maroon van then stopped on the street in front
of the crowd, and a Toyota Camry stopped behind the van. Fields’s Dodge approached the Camry
from behind . . .”).
