For John, BLUF: AntiFa seems to hate freedom of the press and hate Reporters who do not adhere to their party line. Nothing to see here; just move along.

Here is the lede plus three:
A small amount of justice at last in this case.I am glad to see justice finally given to Reporter Andy Ngo. I ad been disappointed in the jury.Earlier this month Andy Ngo’s civil trial against members of Rose City Antifa went to trial. As I explained here, the trial only involved two defendants, John Hacker and Elizabeth Richter, because three other defendants had been found “in default,” meaning they were found liable (the judge would determine the amount of that liability after the trial). One additional defendant had settled the case with Ngo prior to the trial. The trial of the remaining two defendants resulted in the jury siding with the defense.
. . .
Ngo tried to have the verdict overturned given that Hacker had admitted the incident in the gym but the judge didn’t allow it.
Yesterday, the judge issued his decision on the remaining three people who’d been found in default prior to the trial. Each of them was ordered to pay Ngo $100,000.
