Former Atlanta BLM activist accused of stealing from donors to fund lavish lifestyle goes to trial

[WSB-TV2 Atanta] ATLANTA — A former Atlanta-based activist, Sir Maejor Page, who is accused of creating a bogus Black Lives Matter group to steal $500,000 from donors to fund his lavish lifestyle, is now on trial in federal court.

An investigation by the FBI concluded that Sir Maejor, also known as Tyree Conyers-Page, had created a Facebook page called Black Lives Matter of Greater Atlanta and had been soliciting money through the page through a GoFundMe account.

Page is facing charges of money laundering and wire fraud in Ohio after he allegedly used money through his Black Lives Matter nonprofit for personal purchases.

The FBI also said Page responded to several messages through the Facebook account in telling people that their "funds had been donated to be used to fight for George Floyd and that none of ’the funds have been used for personal items. All movement related.’"

Page was arrested in Toledo, Ohio in 2020 as authorities raided the home that he bought there.

In the federal complaint against him, it said Page bought the home under the name of Hi Frequency Ohio, an organization for which he was listed as treasurer and general counsel for.

The complaint outlined several purchases, including a security system which cost $1,310, tailored suits and accessories totaling $2,065, furniture purchases totaling more than $12,000, Walmart purchases totaling more than $4,000, and Home Depot charges of $2,125.67.

#4 Actually I am surprised that he is being prosecuted at all. I had thought that BLM was the ultimate get out of jail free card. Maybe sanity is returning.

Greedy, sloppy, and cocky.
