I wonder if they will let him take classes from jail, assuming he even gets jail time?

“currently attending one of the most prestigious historically Black colleges”

so his SAT score is almost half that of the typical student at the nearest integrated (non-historically Back) college? sounds pretty prestigious to me. /s

And he's still a worthless POS.

He is confused about debits and credits. Liabilities and equity.
Why is he studying a racist topic at a racist school?
Don’t blame me. And don’t flame me.

If he was actually smart he would have waited until he received his accounting degree then used his position to commit a much more lucrative white collar crime instead. And the penalties would have been less if caught.

Yes. And they'll probably pay for them as well.

The same Howard University where the entire law school student body stood and cheered when the jury acquitted OJ.

Howard University is just another ghetto. I remember how they reacted when OJ was declared “not guilty”.

There is nothing “prestigious” about Howard University.

You can take the boy out of the hood. But you can’t take the hood out of the boy. Educate a crook and all you have is an educated crook. And thanks to the Infinite Wisdom of the voters in the 2020 election, they are in charge of the Country today and for the foreseeable future. Enjoy!
