Atlanta BLM activist embezzles BLM money

[Derec]

FBI arrests founder of Atlanta activist group, charges him with fraudulent use of donations

Tyree Conyers-Page, aka Sir Maejor aka Talcum XI.


Hapless donors be like:

Was he connected with the Trump Foundation?

Black Twitter must be tearing him up.

Bell Curve of looks for biracial people:

Tyree Conyers-Page <<<--------------- Joe Shmoe ---------------->>> Shemar Moore

But in all seriousness, fraud committed through the cover of a political or social cause has no bearing on the accuracy of the cause.

I personally think BLM is 80% BS and 20% legit as are most things.

He used much of the money to buy a house for another non-profit to shelter battered women. Tax law confusion?

Smaller amount on food and drink. That might actually be appropriate provided it is for events.

Purchase of clothing. No, that is unlawful. Sounds like he took advantage, not the same order of magnitude as say Steve Bannon, but still it's wrong.

In his zeal to provide an accurate picture of the BLM, the OP poster seems to have not read his own link:

More than a year later in June 2020, that same witness went back to the FBI showing that the BLMGA organization Conyers-Page founded - a splinter group that was never recognized as a representative of the official Atlanta Black Lives Matter organization - was receiving donations from it's official Facebook page.

And, of course, where is the "innocent until proven guilty" standard that is routinely trotted out for alleged rapists?

I am aware he is heading a splinter group not affiliated with the main "trained Marxist" led group.

Where it's always been. He's been charged and there will be a trial unless he pleads guilty.

So why did you change the title of the news article to make it seem it is a provably known truth he is guilty instead of a suspect?

Yet you felt compelled to refer to him as a BLM activist.

Yet you felt compelled to omit the word "allegedly" in your title.
