Alabama man sentenced for extortion tied to KU student
Devaris Lamar Howard, 21, of Gadsden Alabama, received 41 months in prison plus 36 months post release supervision after being convicted of one count of sexual extortion for blackmailing a University of Kansas student into sending nude images. The case involved a sequence of incidents from August to October 2022 and an initial nude image from the victim's middle school years. The judge declined probation and double jeopardy concerns prevented retrying a second count.
