BLM Activist Pleading Guilty In Case Involving Stolen Taxpayer Money Meant To Help Low-Income Families
Story by Hudson Crozier • 20h

A Black Lives Matter (BLM) activist has taken a plea deal in a Fargo, North Dakota, case in which she and her husband are accused of diverting taxpayer money meant for her nonprofit to family members, according to local news outlet InForum.

Faith Shields-Dixon, founder of the Faith4Hope Scholarship Fund, will plead guilty to three felony counts of theft out of five, InForum reported, citing a plea agreement she signed Oct. 1. The deal follows years of allegations of financial mismanagement by BLM leaders after their organizations received lavish funding.

Prosecutors accused Shields-Dixon of accepting $350,000 in grant money for the Faith4Hope Scholarship Fund, which was meant to assist low-income families, and directing $124,000 of it to businesses run by family members. Shields-Dixon told InForum that her sentencing hearing will reveal what precise illegal actions she will confess to.

I don't recall as whole lot of BLM rioting in Fargo. Not saying it didn't happen I just didn't see it on the national news.

I don't recall as whole lot of BLM rioting in Fargo. Not saying it didn't happen I just didn't see it on the national news.

Just down I-94 from Minneapolis...

There were 'protests' all over, but most (especially in the western part of the State) were contained by LEOs and...Bikers, and oilfield hands who counter-protested in sight of the venues where the BLM people were, often armed, and who parked rows of motorcycles in front of possible looting targets. Some things, even Leftists aren't crazy enough to mess with.

The choice was: be Very peaceful or all Hell will come down on any miscreants, so it didn't make the news.

Fargo is arguably the most liberal town in the State, just across the river from Minnesota, Grand Forks a likely second also just across the river from Minnesota. They are two of the three most populous as well.
