Looks like Jacob Goodwin has a cell mate!
UPDATE 7:24PM: The jury has recommended a sentence of six years and no fine for Alex Ramos.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA – Two days after Shieldwall member Jacob Goodwin was convicted for the assault of 20-year-old DeAndre Harris during the so-called “Unite the Right” rally on Aug. 12, Alex Michael Ramos has been convicted of his role in the same assault that day, according to a tweet from NBC News.

It only took the jury 35 minutes to convict Ramos, 33 of Georgia, of malicious wounding, and as of this posting are now deliberating his sentence, which can be a mandatory minimum of 5 years and a maximum of 20.
Ramos is not only an associate of the III% Georgia Security Force but also of the Atlanta chapter of the Proud Boys, a group founded by neo-Fascist Gavin McInnes that believes in political violence against those they oppose, particularly antifa, and even making engaging in such violence as a condition to obtain full membership. Since this condition was established, McInnes has attempted to walk back its intent, saying that it is only in regard to self defense.

Ramos was arrested after efforts by writer Shaun King to identify as many attendees of the “Unite the Right” rally that he and other could, resulted in identifying Ramos as one of Harris’ assailants.
Dear @cobbpolice1,
This man lives in Marietta. You should arrest him immediately.
His name is Michael Alex Ramos.
