The founder of the Black Lives Matter chapter in Memphis has been sentenced to prison for six years for illegally registering to vote in Tennessee, prosecutors said.

Pamela Moses, the 44-year-old activist, was ordered to spend six years and one day behind bars Monday for registering tp to vote despite felony convictions in 2015 that made her intelligible to do so, Shelby County District Attorney General. Amy Weirich said.

In handing down the sentence, Judge Michael Ward accused her of deceiving the probation department to obtain the right to vote, “You tricked the probation department into giving you documents saying you were off probation,” Ward said in court,In 2015, Moses pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence and forgery, both felonies, and to misdemeanor charges of perjury, stalking, theft under $500, and escape.

She was placed on probation for seven years and deemed ineligible to vote in Tennessee because of the tampering with evidence charge. Moses has maintained that she was under the impression that her voting rights had been restored when she went to vote in 2019.“I did not falsify anything. All I did was try to get my rights to vote back the way the people at the election commission told me and the way the clerk did,” she said at the hearing.“She believes the sentencing was beyond the evidence that was presented,” he told the Washington Post.

yah, glad justice is colorblind

Let me get this; a black life matter activist voted for; an organization which was formed to further enslave, Imprison, and oppress the rights of her people, who hung and burned her ancestors, and she is prosecuted by this same organization, and black people is to rescue a traita

Berard5Jason A BIDEN VOTE. NO cheating right

That’s bs! 6 years really! 😡😡

Love good news, glad they caught this and followed through. Time to make police free to police again. Don't like authority knocking you down, don't break the damn law.

Voting fraud in US: Now, we know how Biden became US President, instead of the most popular Trump.

NY Post.....LYING as usual!!!

How much time did trump get for trying to steal an election?

WOW !!!!! So if she got 6 years in Prison then I her all those GOP will get life for what they did and are still doing . Life without any chance of parole and the death penalty for Trump and his goodies .

stranahan But not Younkin's son?

She was able to get an ID!?

So long as black/brown America continue to believe and support the blatant manipulation of black/brown Americans, by the always pandering yet never delivering Democratic party, then nothing will change... fortunately, many minority black/brown citizens are finally waking up.

But…I thought our voting system is completely and utterly secure!? Voter fraud and illegal voting is a myth according to some!!

Surprise surprise

6 years is too long. 1 year and then 1 yr community service.

BLM is a scam, and the organization is criminal, but 6 years is too harsh for this crime.

Cope BLM, cope.

Now look up all the (white) voter fraud and see what their punishment is/was. Not even 1 day in jail. SMH.

SHE DIDN’T ILLEGALLY VOTE. Jesus could people just do 2 minutes research before they tweet.

Wow - well that's something you don't see everyday... a BLM principal involved in a scandal. At least she wasn't buying a mansion in a white people's neighborhood.

congats

Could it be she was already on probation for the same thing? Please get your facts straight before you make ignorant tweets

Why didn't the main media do a story on this until now?

Is this what Biden meant when he says “voter suppression?”

Bye 👋🏽 😆

Six years, is that the normal time for the crime across the board for everyone😳why do elections bring out the crazy

Pretends to be shocked….

👍👍👍👍👍

In that prison getup, she IS looking real personal. Too bad. Perhaps, now, United States cities can be a little bit safer against arson and vandalism. I am a peaceful person. 😃 Pi

Oh she unqualified to vote as a convicted felon. And how many more felons voted?

6 years!! What will Trump get?

Good

Very surprised that a BLM founder had a rap sheet 😂🤣

Damn, if you get 6 years for trying to vote what do you get for submitting fraudulent election certification docs?

Haha

Awesome News! Now for the rest!!

Wrong! She was told by her probation officer, even given a letter by said probation officer and she was told by election officials she was eligible. She registered and THAT is when they said she wasn’t eligible..her case is being appealed

This must be the excellence they speak of. CorruptCulture WSCCTalk ItsAightToBeWhite CalledToStand

But Democrats said there are no voter's fraud. Guess conspiracy theories are now fact.. MAGA

lock her up

Can’t be true. There is no issue with voting. Groper joe said so.

I bet she won’t vote again, again.

'but what about this one?' You are part of the problem.

About time. But that does seem a little steep

What’s with all the typos in the article?! proofread
