An avowed white supremacist was sentenced to life plus 419 years on US federal hate crime charges for deliberately driving his car into anti-racism protesters during a white nationalist rally in Virginia.
, 22, received the sentence for killing one person and injuring dozens during the Unite The Right rally in Charlottesville on August 12 2017.
Last month, Fields received a life sentence on 29 federal hate crime charges.
Charlottesville Circuit Court Judge Richard Moore followed a state jury's recommendation in handing down the sentence.
Under state law, he was allowed to go lower than the recommendation, but not higher.
"Mr Fields, you had choices. We all have choices," Mr Moore said.
"You made the wrong ones and you caused great harm. ... You caused harm around the globe when people saw what you did."
The state sentence is mainly symbolic given his previous sentence on the federal charges.
Fields, an avowed white supremacist who kept a photo of Adolf Hitler on his bedside table, drove from his home in Maumee, Ohio, to attend the rally, which drew hundreds of white nationalists to Charlottesville to protest against the planned removal of a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee.
The event also drew counter-protesters who demonstrated against the white nationalists.
Violent skirmishes between the two sides prompted police to declare an unlawful assembly and to order the groups to disband before the rally could even begin.
Later that day, Fields ploughed his car into a crowd of counter-protesters, killing Heather Heyer, 32, and injuring more than two dozen others.
Heyer's parents described the grief of losing their daughter.
"It was an incident I will never fully recover from," said Heyer's father, Mark Heyer.
Her mother, Susan Bro, described herself as "deeply wounded" and recounted crying uncontrollably at times.
The event stirred racial tensions around the country.
President Donald Trump sparked controversy when he blamed the violence at the rally on "both sides," a statement that critics saw as a refusal to condemn racism.
During Fields' state trial, his lawyers focused on his history of mental illness and traumatic childhood.
