This would be really funny, in a low sort of way, if it didn't involve a bunch of disadvantaged kids getting screwed over by a nominal community leader:

A prominent Black Lives Matter leader in Boston and her husband have been charged with using a $6,000 grant to take at-risk youth to a Philadelphia retreat on themselves — for a getaway to Maryland, restaurants and shopping sprees, among other things.

Monica Cannon-Grant, 41, founder of the nonprofit Violence in Boston, and her husband,, Clark Grant, 38, were charged Tuesday in an 18-count federal indictment, including charges for wire fraud and making false statements to a mortgage lending business.

Those are all quite serious. White-collar crime is understandably not as reviled as violent and/or capital crimes, but it can still land you in prison for quite a while if you get caught.

And oh buddy did these folks get caught:

In June 2019, she was given a check for $6,000 for a trip to Philly "to give these young men exposure to communities outside of the violence riddled neighborhoods that they navigate daily," the Boston Globe reported.

Instead, the couple used the money to take a vacation to Maryland, eat at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., Shake Shack and other eateries, and pay for car rentals, Walmart purchases and visits to a nail salon, the feds allege.

I mean, look, before you judge too harshly, consider: If you were to find yourself with $6,000 cash-in-hand, where are you gonna go first?

That's right: Bubba Gump Shrimp Company.

You know it's true.

After all...

And that's not all the alleged criminal couple has been charged with:

The indictment charges them in connection with three separate schemes — defrauding donors, lying on a mortgage application and illegally collecting about $100,000 in pandemic unemployment benefits, according to the Globe.

Uh wow.

Another reason you shouldn't judge too harshly is because the presiding judge in this trial will likely do it for you!
