Jacob S. Goodwin, who was accused of brutally beating a black man at a rally in Charlottesville, Va., last year, was convicted on a felony count of malicious wounding on Tuesday, making him the first person to face judgment for one of the event’s most prominent acts of violence. Jurors recommended Mr. Goodwin, 23, of Ward, Ark., face 10 years in prison, a $20,000 fine and a rehabilitation or empathy plan, according to NBC 29, a local TV station. A judge is scheduled to sentence him this summer. Mr. Goodwin was one of six men to surround and attack DeAndre Harris, 20, in a parking garage on Aug. 12, beating him with metal pipes and wooden boards. Mr. Harris suffered a broken wrist and a head wound that required 10 staples. The attack was captured on video, and the footage spread widely on social media as amateur sleuths set out to identify the assailants. Two remain unidentified, but three others have been arrested: Alex Michael Ramos, 34; Daniel P. Borden, 18; and Tyler Watkins Davis, 50. #DeAndreHarris #charlottesville #jacobgoodwin
