Black Lives Matter Activist Pleads Guilty to Faking Racism on Twitter – May Get 90 Days & $82,000 Fine
You may recall the story from December 2012 of 25-year-old Kayla-Simone McKelvey, a Black Lives Matter activist, who tweeted out racist threats against black student and faculty at Kean University the very same night she attended a rally to protest racial intolerance on college campuses. Well, McKelvey pled guilty and faces up to 90 days in jail and $82,000 in restitution to cover cost of the response of the police.
Here are some of the fake racial hate tweetsshe sent.
On Monday, McKelvey pled guilty to the charges against her for sending false alarmtweets, which did nothing but incite the crowd.
WND reports:
McKelvey and her attorney had hoped to have her sentenced to participate in a pretrial intervention program that would have avoided jail time, but that request was denied last week.
Following her guilty plea, state prosecutors reportedly will recommend McKelvey be sentenced to 90 days in jail and that she pay restitution of about $82,000 to cover the costs of the police response and heightened security at the university caused by her threats.
The $82,000 fine is the equivalent of three-and-a-half years of in-state tuition at the university.
McKelvey will be back in court for sentencing June 17.
