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.

All that is taking place on the streets, and THIS is what
they get the guy for??????????

HELLO!!!! Thump! Thump! Thump! Is this thing on?

Youc can get away with murder these days, burn cities to
the ground, beat people, loot to your heart’s content,
but unless you’re a Conservative defending yourself
or misusing funds meant to pay for insurrection,
rioting, and terrorism, you seemingly can’t get the
attention of the authorities anywhere?

I think we’re all better off that he spent it on himself than on BLM activities (riots, looting, murder...)

[right way right]

Look! An albino black guy.
Fascinating!

BLM is a scam. Why shouldn’t MP get paid?

Page was arrested in Toledo and released on "bond" after appearing before a judge via video

Uh oh. What money?

[John123]

So he bought a house in Toledo, Ohio for $120K, outfitted it with a home security system... all with BLM donations. Then led riots in Atlanta?

Irony is thick with this one...
