Another Prosecution of a George Floyd Rioter, This Time in Tennessee | DJHJ Media: A shirtless redneck was photographed lighting a Nashville courthouse on fire last year during a riot after the death of George Floyd. The picture of him was crystal clear, right down to his tattoos. It showed him throwing accelerant into a broken window of the courthouse. Wesley Somers didn’t realize that to get away with such a crime, you must commit it in Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, or New York. The Nashville courthouse has been set on fire. pic.twitter.com/KY5FfgLhNJ — Chloe Salsameda WJBF (@ChloeSalsameda) May 31, 2020 Somers, 26, was arrested at a home in Henderson, Tennessee. They have not determined why he set the courthouse on fire and the same night he was seen assaulting a light pole. He pled guilty yesterday to “malicious destruction of property.” The guilty plea was announced by the DOJ and Somers will have to receive a sentence of at least five years in prison for his destruction of property. he had been previously arrested for doing cocaine in his car with children present, endangering them as well.
