This incident not only sheds light on the misuse of charitable donations but also raises questions about the accountability and responsibility of individuals entrusted with managing such funds.
Frank David Sensabaugh, a prominent Black Lives Matter (BLM) leader in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, known as “Frank Nitty,” was apprehended by Milwaukee police under suspicion of felony third-degree sexual assault on Monday night, igniting controversy and concerns within the activist community.
Sensabaugh, 39, gained recognition as a BLM activist in the wake of George Floyd’s death, spearheading and organizing protests in Milwaukee, Kenosha, and other cities. His arrest, broadcasted live on Facebook, showcased a tense situation as Sensabaugh’s son took over filming during the police confrontation. Off-camera, a scuffle ensued between Sensabaugh’s associate and a police officer.
In a recorded plea to his supporters, Sensabaugh requested financial assistance for his expenses while in custody, emphasizing his lack of cash. This arrest isn’t Sensabaugh’s first encounter with the law; his criminal history involves prior charges related to drug manufacturing, driving with a revoked license, and a substantial backlog of over $92,000 in unpaid child support, according to Wisconsin public records.
Earlier in August, Sensabaugh faced disorderly conduct charges after leading a group to obstruct traffic on an Indiana highway. Moreover, on August 24, he participated in a BLM protest on private property in rural Michigan that resulted in a tense standoff, leading to a protester’s injury amid crossfire.
Sensabaugh’s arrest has prompted outcry and raised questions within the BLM movement, highlighting his controversial past and bringing attention to the balance between activism and legal accountability in social justice movements.
