Federal Judge Orders Monica Cannon-Grant to Repay $224K in Nonprofit Fraud Case
A federal judge has ordered former Boston activist Monica Cannon-Grant to repay $224,000 linked to fraud at her nonprofit, Violence in Boston. The ruling covers embezzlement from donations and other misused funds, including money from individuals, the Suffolk County district attorneys office, and the city of Boston. Cannon-Grant, who rose to fame in 2020 after George Floyds killing, pleaded guilty last year to 18 counts, including wire fraud and false tax returns. She was sentenced to four years of probation, six months of home detention, and 100 hours of community service. The judge broke down the repayment as about $180,000 from the nonprofit and the rest from fraudulent benefits.
