CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — An independent report that found serious police and government failures in responding to violence at a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville this summer also accuses police agencies of putting up roadblocks to the investigation.

The report released Friday by former U.S. Attorney Tim Heaphy said Virginia State Police refused to make commanders on the ground at the Aug. 12 rally available for interviews or to provide most documents requested. It also said Charlottesville Police Chief Al Thomas deleted relevant text messages and made officers fearful of retaliation for speaking with investigators.

eaphy’s report was sharply critical of Thomas’ response as the violence began to escalate that day.

According to the report, as brawling first broke out, Thomas said, [color="Red"]“let them fight, it will make it easier to declare an unlawful assembly.”

Virginia’s Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security Brian Moran was initially willing to cooperate, Heaphy said,[color="Red"] but Moran’s office later invoked executive privilege over certain information amid concerns about possible litigation against the state.

This reinforces what we've been saying all along: we're being ruled by absolutely nothing but KIKE-WHORES, COMMIES, NIGGERS & CRIMINAL SCUM.
