Clark Grant was killed yesterday evening, March 29. Link from the Globe: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2023/03/30/metro/clark-grant-indicted-fraud-alongside-activist-wife-monica-cannon-grant-killed-motorcycle-crash/

And text from the OP Boston.com link:

> Clark Grant, 39, of Taunton, succumbed to his injuries Wednesday night at Good Samaritan Hospital in Brockton, Easton Police Chief Keith Boone said in a press release on Thursday.

> Grant and his wife, who formerly managed the now-defunct Violence In Boston nonprofit, were indicted on federal fraud charges a year ago, as prosecutors alleged they defrauded donors of the organization, committed unemployment fraud, and lied to a mortgage lender.

> Chris Malcolm, an attorney representing Cannon-Grant, released a statement on the crash Thursday:

> “We are horrified and deeply saddened by the loss this great man. He will be forever missed. Monica heard from him as he left work yesterday and was about to head home on his motorcycle. They told each other I love you. That was their last contact."

> Upon arrival, authorities found a motorcyclist, later identified as Grant, lying in the road and “suffering from traumatic injuries,” Boone said in the news release.

> An officer performed CPR on Grant along with an unnamed passerby until Easton Fire Department personnel arrived at the scene, Boone said.

> Grant then received medical treatment from firefighters before he was brought to the Brockton hospital, where he died, Boone said.

> A preliminary investigation indicated Clark was traveling southbound on Turnpike Street on a Honda motorcycle before the crash, according to Boone.

> The driver of the Jeep was identified by Boone as a 40-year-old Brockton resident. A 9-year-old passenger was also in the vehicle at the time, Boone said.

> Both individuals were not injured in the crash, he said.

The quote from the lawyer was amazing

>Monica can at least find some peace in knowing this will result in his acquittal as all pending charges against him shall be dismissed by the Government.

Yeah I deliberately left that part out because it was so cringey but in hindsight it was the most telling.
