I guess the penalty for plagiarism is psychological torment followed by death now, but only if you’re black.

Did he actually get found guilty of plagiarism? I thought most if not all investigations put him in the clear for that.

Liverpool cleared him, and Cambridge opened an investigation but it never completed. Doesn’t really matter at this point whether he did or not, it was a completely overblown and racially motivated response to academic misconduct either way

I think there were other institutions that he had been associated with that also cleared him. Cambridge will likely only look at work he’s done while with them, and defer to Liverpool or others for work he did elsewhere.
