Virginia Democratic attorney general candidate Jay Jones’ campaign continued to take in major donations from Democrats and Democratic-aligned PACs even after it was revealed he had envisioned the murder of a Republican leader and his family — while his reckless driving case remains under further investigation.

The Virginia Public Access Project (VPAP), which painstakingly publishes donor names, amounts, lawmakers’ biographies, bills, district maps and more, printed data from Jones’ latest campaign finance disclosures this week.

Since the murder text scandal broke on October 3, Jones received more than $1 million in donations. Fox News Digital pored through some of the higher-dollar amounts, focusing on donors who contributed $5,000 or more since then.

DAGA PAC, the political action committee supporting Democratic attorneys general, dumped nearly 75% of that million-dollar-figure in three tranches in the last two weeks: two gifts of $250,000 and another expenditure of $230,000.

The next highest donor was the Virginia Legislative Black Caucus.

The group, chaired by Del. Luke Torian, D-Montclair, and Del. Joshua Cole, D-Fredericksburg, contributed $50,000 on October 20, and had given another $50,000 one day before Jones’ murder texts scandal broke.

The Virginia Eighth District Democratic Committee – a party organization comprised of people from Rep. Don Beyer’s heavily blue Alexandria-Fairfax congressional district, but not connected to the congressman himself – gave $30,000 to Jones’ campaign on October 21, according to VPAP.

The largest individual donor in the timeframe was Norfolk attorney and executive Adam Casagrande, the vice president of a Virginia Beach diving supply company that sells equipment and provides logistics to the Pentagon. Casagrande gave Jones $25,000, according to VPAP, and has given substantive sums to Rep. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., ex-Gov. Terry McAuliffe and several Norfolk Democrats.

Another $25,000 came from an individual named Scott Shenker, who appears in VPAP records as a top donor from Berkeley, California, with similar contributions to McAuliffe, Spanberger and former House Democratic Leader Eileen Filler-Corn.

The next highest donor was Karen Waldron, identified by VPAP as a Botetourt County real estate developer, who gave $15,000 to Jones on October 17, and also gave to Lily Franklin – a Democrat battling Del. Chris Obenshain, R-Roanoke, in what is likely to be one of the closest races in the state House sweeps.

Shahir Kassam-Adams of Lovingston made the next-largest contribution since Jones’ scandals surfaced, donating $10,000.

One notable donor who gave $5,000 a few days prior to the scandals rocking the news cycle was Jonathan Soros, the younger son of left-wing Hungarian American billionaire George Soros.

Attorneys for a Virginia teacher shot by her 6-year-old student told jurors that the school’s former assistant principal ignored repeated warnings the boy had a gun, as a $40 million civil trial opened in Newport News.

The $40 million civil trial filed by first-grade teacher Abigail Zwerner, who was shot by a 6-year-old student in 2023 with a 9 mm handgun, entered its opening phase Tuesday as attorneys delivered their opening remarks and the first witnesses took the stand.

The lawsuit accuses former school administrator Ebony Parker of failing to act after the first-grade teacher, the guidance counselor, the music teacher and the reading specialist informed her that the boy might have a gun. Zwerner is suing Parker, who resigned after the shooting.

“No one could have imagined that a 6-year-old first-grade student would bring a firearm into a school,” Parker’s attorney, Daniel Hogan, told jurors. “You will be able to judge for yourself whether or not this was foreseeable. That’s the heart of this case.”

LAWYERS FOR VIRGINIA TEACHER SHOT BY 6-YEAR-OLD FILE $40M SUIT DETAILING HOW SCHOOL ALLEGEDLY IGNORED WARNINGS

On Jan. 6, 2023, the boy pulled the gun from his hoodie and shot the 25-year-old teacher, with the bullet tearing through her left hand and lodging in her chest.

“1:58 p.m., BANG!” Zwerner’s attorney, Diane Toscano, said in opening statements. “A bullet went through Abby’s hand, then through her chest.” The bullet is still in Zwerner’s body because it’s too dangerous to remove, she added.

Zwerner’s lawyer accused Parker of being grossly negligent because she had several opportunities to confiscate the gun based on the information provided by others.

“She made bad decisions that day,” Toscano said.

Hogan said that decision-making in a public school setting is “cooperative” and “collaborative.” He also warned of hindsight bias and “Monday morning quarterbacking.”

“The law knows that it is fundamentally unfair to judge another person’s decisions based on stuff that came up after the fact,” Hogan said. “The law requires you to examine people’s decisions at the time they make them.”

VIRGINIA TEACHER SHOT BY 6-YEAR-OLD STUDENT IN CLASSROOM SAYS SHE’LL ‘NEVER FORGET THE LOOK ON HIS FACE’

Dr. Nina Farrish, the director of human resources for Newport News Public Schools, testified that Parker admitted to her two or three days after the shooting that it was reported around 12:20 p.m. the student had a gun in his backpack. That was more than 90 minutes before the shooting.

Amy Kovac, the reading specialist, was in Parker’s office when Zwerner told Parker the boy had threatened a kindergartner and had been aggressive with a security officer during lunch. Parker never looked up at Zwerner, who had to leave to return to class, Kovac testified.

“She told me I could tell [Zwerner] that she could call his mom at any time to come pick him up,” Kovac testified Tuesday.

When she confronted the 6-year-old, she recalled telling him, “Can I have the bag?” and the boy replied, “No, no one is getting that bag.”

Kovac said she immediately warned Parker, only to be brushed off: “She did say, well, he has little pockets.”

Kovac testified that she pressed Parker again, saying the child might have slipped the weapon into his jacket pocket. Minutes later, after hearing the gunshot, Kovac ran to Zwerner’s classroom.

“I felt like I had a bubble of God around me, and I walked straight to him,” she told jurors.

The boy, she said, stood “with his legs kind of spread open, arms crossed and cocked.”

Kovac testified she grabbed his wrist and restrained him, using Zwerner’s phone to call for help.

“I said, this is Richneck. A teacher’s been shot. I have the shooter. Send help.”

VIRGINIA TEACHER EMAILS REVEAL ‘BEHAVIORAL DIFFICULTIES’ WITH 6-YEAR-OLD WHO SHOT HER: REPORT

Another first-grade teacher at the school, Jennifer West, testified Tuesday that a “visibly nervous” student told her after recess that the 6-year-old had a gun on him, and he saw the firearm and bullet.

She said she called the front office to report this to an administrator, per protocol, and also spoke to a school counselor about it.

The counselor, Rolonzo Rawles, testified Tuesday that he asked Parker if he could search the child’s person for a gun and that she responded that the student’s mother would be arriving to get him soon and to wait to check him then.

“I didn’t want to step over any boundaries, so I wasn’t going to check him without permission,” Rawles said.

Toscano argued that Parker had the authority as the assistant principal to act.

“Who would think a 6-year-old is going to bring a gun to school and shoot their teacher?” she said. “Dr. Parker’s job is to believe that is possible.”

Parker faces a separate criminal trial next month on eight counts of felony child neglect, one for “each of the eight bullets that endangered all the students” in Zwerner’s classroom, prosecutors said.

The mother of the boy who shot Zwerner, Deja Taylor, was sentenced to two years in prison for felony neglect and federal weapons charges.

An Alabama man was arrested after authorities say investigators uncovered disturbing plans to carry out violence against synagogues throughout Alabama and neighboring states.

Jeremy Wayne Shoemaker, 33, of Needham was taken into custody after the FBI and local law enforcement were notified of “credible threats of violence” against multiple synagogues, the Clarke County Sheriff’s Office said Tuesday in a news release.

“Last night, likely acts of violence were averted before they happened,” the sheriff’s office said.

Investigators said they seized weapons, more than a suitcase full of ammunition, body armor and other items from Shoemaker’s residence that were related to the alleged plans of violence.

“He had stockpiled some ammunition, some of it was old, some of it was new,” Clarke County Sheriff DeWayne Smith told FOX10 WALA. “He had a newly purchased assault rifle, he had extended magazines which were loaded and the way that the ammo was fixed was like he was ready to go and utilize it somewhere.”

The investigation further revealed that Shoemaker did not plan on being taken alive, according to the sheriff’s office.

“He had planned to shoot it out with the police, but, due to tactics, he was unable to do so,” Smith said, adding that the bruises seen in Shoemaker’s mugshot were sustained while he resisted arrest.

Shoemaker was also accused of potentially planning attacks on public figures. Authorities did not immediately release the names of any figures Shoemaker was allegedly targeting due to the ongoing investigation. The names of the synagogues he allegedly planned to target were also not immediately provided.

Shoemaker was charged with resisting arrest and certain persons forbidden to possess a firearm. Additional federal charges are likely, authorities said.

Shoemaker was being held on $150,000 cash bond. He was due to appear in court on Nov. 7.
