Tyrone Hankerson To Sue Howard For $10 Million For Info Leak
Ain’t THIS about a b!t¢h?!
After bringing the internet to a collective stop over his *alleged* embezzlement scandal, Howard University alumnus Tyrone Hankerson is reportedly planning to sue the school that he is accused of stealing over $400,000 from.
According to CBSNews, Tyrone and his lawyer James Walker spoke about how he’s dealing with day-to-day life since scandal news broke.
“I’ve tried to manage by pulling myself away – I have a great support system of friends making sure I’m OK at the law school,” Hankerson said. “We’re just trying to get through it as best as possible. But the biggest thing is safety concerns because people are tweeting and posting while I’m in class. I would hate … for somebody to target me and for anything to happen to any of my classmates or myself.”
Additionally, Walker is taking the University to task for not coming forward to clear Tyrone’s name.
“What’s more troubling to me is that Howard hasn’t come out and apologized to this young man – this could be anyone’s son, nephew, brother,” said Walker, who was in Atlanta. “Regardless, Howard should have come out and said we’re sorry, this should not have happened, his file should not have gotten leaked.”
Walker placed blame on Howard for being transparent with students.
“The university has a chance here to show how they operate and run the university and how they move swiftly to fix a problem,” Walker said. “The reason students are protesting is because they feel like every one of their issues, every one of their demands over the years are not met in a sufficient or quick or swift manner.”
Then there’s this…
BREAKING: Tyrone Hankerson to sue .@HowardU for $10 million for leaking his financial records, according to his lawyer, James Walker. The complaint will “most likely” be filed Friday morning, Walker said.
This is a developing story.

$10 million?!? Guess that $429,000 wasn’t enough. These photographers, Gucci purses and trips to Machu Picchu ain’t gonna pay for themselves.
