Suspect had violent run-in with law in ’08
u-va. from A1
urbia, on the verge of graduating from the public Ivy in Charlottes- ville. Huguely and Love, both 22, had dated for many months when Love called it off in recent weeks, according to several peo- ple close to her. But for Huguely, it was not over. Early Monday, Huguely arrived

at Love’s apartment, according to a police affidavit filed in support of a search warrant. The front door wasn’t locked, but appar- ently her bedroom door was. He forced it open, kicking it with his right foot. Police said they found
hairs in the hole he left in the door.
Roommates who found Love
shortly after 2 a.m. thought she might be passed out from drink- ing and called police. But police found Love dead, facedown in a pool of blood on her pillow. The police documents said she had a bruised face, a swollen eye and scrapes on her chin. Officers picked up Huguely at his apartment nearby within a few hours, and after waiving his rights, according to the police af- fidavit, he told detectives that the couple had been “involved in an altercation” in which “he shook Love and her head repeatedly hit
the wall,” according to the affida- vit. Huguely admitted taking Love’s computer and discarding it. Police have recovered it and are searching it, according to Charlottesville Police Chief Tim Longo, to determine whether any of Huguely’s final e-mails threat- ened his former girlfriend’s life. Longo also said police are in-
vestigating witness reports that Huguely was seen drinking throughout the day Sunday. Huguely’s attorney did not dis-
pute Huguely’s late-night visit to Love but told reporters that he did not intend to kill her. “We are confident that Ms.

Sustaining Culture in Copyright
JUNE 22-24 •WASHINGTON CONVENTION CENTER •WASHINGTON, D.C.
The Center for Intellectual Property (CIP) at University of Maryland University College presents a symposium where leading experts will explore the balance—and boundaries—between sustaining a vibrant culture and protecting the rights of owners of creative works.
Love’s death was not intended but an accident with a tragic out- come,” said Charlottesville law- yer Francis McQ. Lawrence, who represented Huguely on Tuesday at a scheduled bond hearing, which was delayed. Lawrence said Tuesday, on what would have been Huguely’s last day of classes, that he would withdraw from school. On the Charlottesville campus, students pleaded for time to ab- sorb the ghastly crime, and the charge that it was committed by one of their own. On Tuesday night, student leaders living in coveted rooms along the campus Lawn set out about five dozen small votive candles in memory of Love but declined to talk pub- licly about their action. The student council will hold a campuswide candlelight vigil at 8 p.m. Wednesday. President John Casteen will speak at the event. For the university’s tight-knit community of athletes, the attack hit particularly close. “We all hang out at the same
spots,” said Aaron Clark, a former football team linebacker who knew Huguely and Love. “This situation hits everybody. It’s not just the lacrosse team. . . . We all talk, we all hang out. It’s just so gut-wrenching to know that peo- ple you know and have hung out with and are acquaintances with

can have this happen.” Love’s sister and mother ar- rived here Monday and attended a meeting of the women’s la- crosse team, its coaching staff, parents and friends. University officials said the family was not ready to speak publicly about Love’s death. A moment of si- lence was held at 6 p.m. at a base- ball game against Virginia Com- monwealth University, the first such public gesture since the slaying. Not far away is a large memori- al to Morgan Harrington — a jumble of signs, flowers and stuffed animals in memory of the Virginia Tech student last seen after a concert at U-Va.’s John Paul Jones arena last year. Be- sides the votive candles on the Lawn, there was no obvious pub- lic memorial to Love, but there was a Facebook page dedicated to her memory. It went up Monday night and had more than 19,514 members. Love was the daughter of an in-
vestor, raised on an estate in a suburb north of Baltimore, edu- cated at the private Notre Dame Prep, a girls’ school. She played field hockey and lacrosse, volun- teered at a soup kitchen and counseled in a summer camp program for kids from housing projects. She was also a bit of a math nerd. Her father, John Love, died of
prostate cancer in 2003, Love’s sophomore year in high school, leaving Yeardley (pronounced “Yardley”), her older sister, Lexie, and mother Sharon. Love and her classmates attended the funeral in their school uniforms and sad- dle shoes.
“She handled everything so
graciously and was so strong throughout,” said Casey Dono- hoe, a longtime friend. Concetta Davis, a neighbor, said she remembered the cele- bration on the day Love learned she was admitted to U-Va. She said she is in disbelief about the recent turn of events. “If I had a daughter in college today, I would be sick,” she said. George Huguely V came from a monied Chevy Chase family that co-founded the Galliher & Huguely lumberyard in the Dis- trict nearly a century ago, accord- ing to the company’s Web site. He was educated at the exclusive all- boys Landon School in Bethesda. He was starting quarterback and a lacrosse all-American. His mother, Marta, was a part-time model for Saks Fifth Avenue. His parents divorced, and his mother remarried.
Some on the U-Va. campus called Huguely quiet. “He was just sort of this quiet, sweet kid,” said Wende Marshall, an assis- tant anthropology professor. Love and Huguely were well- known at U-Va., whose champion lacrosse teams receive a measure of respect more commonly re- served for football players. (The men’s and women’s lacrosse teams plan to continue their sea- sons.) They traveled in hard-par- tying Greek circles, friends said, but had broken up as the end of their senior year approached. Sometimes, Huguely partied too hard.
On the night of his scuffle with
a female officer in Lexington, Va., the officer found Huguely stum- bling into traffic. He told her that he was in town to visit some friends at a fraternity party. Offi- cer R.L. Moff said that she asked whether anyone could pick him up so that he could avoid going to jail.
“He said: ‘I’ll kill you. I’ll kill
all of y’all. I’m not going to jail,’ ” Moff recalled. She said his dia- tribe was laced with racial, sexual and other vulgar terms. Moff said Huguely became
combative and fought with her for “three or four minutes.” She said that she used a Taser but that it made him angrier. “He be- came a lot more aggressive,” she said, before she was able to wres- tle him into handcuffs. Moff said Huguely continued to use expletives as she walked him to her patrol car. In court that night, she said, he did not re- call that he had been Tasered or that his arresting officer had been a woman. Huguely pleaded guilty to re- sisting arrest, public swearing and public intoxication. He re- ceived a 60-day suspended sen- tence, six months’ supervised probation and a fine, according to court records. He was ordered to complete 50 hours of commu- nity service and 20 hours of sub- stance abuse education, which he finished in July, the records show. According to a Rockbridge Coun- ty court clerk, he completed all of the requirements.
