CONFIRMED: Vandal behind racist graffiti at Salisbury University … is black
 [The College Fix] Salisbury University experienced massive racial unrest after a series of racist graffiti was discovered on campus over the course of the 2019-20 school year.The public, Maryland-based university canceled classes for a “day of healing” and hired a new associate vice president for diversity and inclusion at a cost of $140,000 annually. Authorities have had a suspect since February but refused comment to The College Fix on details. Turns out, the vandal is black. Jerome Kevin Jackson, 54, is set to plead guilty June 12 to maliciously defacing school property “while exhibiting racial animosity,” according to a news release from the Office of the State’s Attorney for Wicomico County published Monday.
If the case were to go to trial, the document shows prosecutors would "demonstrate beyond all reasonable doubt" Jackson defaced campus property Oct. 8, 10, and 22, and Nov. 4 in 2019, as well as Feb. 19, 2020. Jackson will be charged with one count of "maliciously defacing property while exhibiting racial animosity," though the agreement stipulates that he accepts responsibility for the offenses committed on all of the above dates "so that the University can begin to heal." The agreement requires he pay $494 — the amount it cost to clean the graffiti — in restitution to the university, and prosecutors plan to recommend he serve 18 months of active incarceration.
