The FBI has arrested the founder of a Black Lives Matter group in Atlanta on fraud and money laundering charges. placeholder

Sir Maejor Page, 32, was accused Friday of misappropriating $200,000 in donations he solicited through Facebook on behalf of Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta, Fox 5 Atlanta reported Friday.

Page was arrested in Toledo and released on bond after appearing before a judge via video. He did not immediately return messages Saturday from Fox News.

The Toledo FBI office opened an investigation last year after a cooperating witness submitted a fraud complaint against Page, whose real name is Tyree Conyers-Page, FBI agent Matthew Desorbo said in the complaint.

Page founded Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta in 2016 and this year took in more than $466,000 in donations in June, July and August, Desorbo said.

"In sum, Page has spent over $200,000 on personal items generated from donations received through BLMGA Facebook page with no identifiable purchase or expenditure for social or racial justice," he said.

Do we really want to discourage this action? Every BLM penny skimmed off for a house is one penny less spent on a Molotov cocktail.

Imagine a Social Justice Warrior raises money to fight Social Injustice and spends all the money on himself.

This man must have been horribly discriminated against his entire life!

That’s a better use of the money than what BLM would have.

BLM and really most charities are just slush funds for democrat elites. Don’ give to a charity that is not in your local community. If you don’t see the money go for a cause, rest assured most of it doesn’t. If the President of the Charity is an employee, don’t give them a dime.
