A Black Lives Matter rioter has avoided jail despite smashing a car window onto a 1 year-old child.
Arguing it was a “very emotional time” for Victor Miles II after the death of George Floyd, the defendant’s lawyer, Eugene Frost, successfully convinced a Virginia judge to impose a suspended 90-day sentence for the assault and destruction of property charges relating to a BLM protest in Fredericksburg last year.
The assault charge will be removed from Miles’ record if he stays out of trouble for one year.
A group of 200 protestors had blocked a bridge in Fredericksburg, stopping a car with a child and two adults.
Miles, who was 32 at the time, broke a rear window of the car with his scooter, covering the child and one of the adults with glass.
Suspended sentence for this, 4 months in solitary plus offer of 7 year prison term for 60 year old Capitol trespasser who committed no violence. Sounds like justice. https://t.co/qWLqM9Zt60

Just to clarify this, if he doesn't get in trouble again, he won't do any prison time
A suspended sentence is when a judge gives a sentence but delays imposing it, allowing them to serve probation. If they don't break probation conditions for a period, they'll generally dismiss
