Florida Man Swindles HBCU on Stadium Deal | Greenville News

A Florida man, Lamonica Valrie, 66, faces four federal charges—including wire fraud and money laundering—for allegedly promising to build a free football stadium for Allen University, then pocketing millions meant for the project. Instead of construction, prosecutors say he splurged on luxury cars, jewelry, a yacht charter, and a South Florida mansion. He also allegedly swindled an African Methodist Episcopal Church out of $154K tied to the same scheme. Facing up to 20 years if convicted, Valrie’s next court date is in South Carolina—another chapter in a wild tale of broken promises and vanished cash.
