A former Boston community organizer and Black Lives Matter activist has been ordered by a federal judge to repay more than $224,000 after pleading guilty to charges related to misusing money donated to her now-defunct charity.
Monica Cannon-Grant, who gained notoriety during the widespread BLM protests in 2020, will pay a sum of $224,063 to the government, according to an order from District Court Judge Angel Kelley.
The forfeiture amount was calculated based on funds the 44-year-old admitted to fraudulently obtaining.
