An Antifa member will spend over a year in prison after pleading guilty to assault, a rare conviction for a person involved with the violent far-left group.
Antifa has become infamous for meeting its ideological opponents, which include a number of conservatives and others on the right, with physicality, including a number of instances of violence. Despite violence repeatedly being captured on video, the group often escapes repercussions because they wear masks, obscuring their faces and making it difficult for authorities to identify them if an arrest isn’t immediately made.
