No, not the actual bed intruder – the would-be rapist. I mean the brother, Antoine Dodson of Auto Tune the News fame. Weeks later, that video still makes me smile. Turns out that the assailant has not yet been caught, but the Dodson family has made the most of their burst of fame. The Auto Tune guys have graciously split whatever profits the video made with them, and they’ve put up a website with a tip jar. The proceeds, so far, have been enough to move the family out of the projects. Antoine – or Kevin, as he’s known to his family – was a student at a local community college. He’s carrying on with his education, though he is picking up gigs on the side, recording radio spots for local businesses. He is MUCH more well spoken than I’d have given him credit for, and he’s using his 15 of fame to help his family get ahead. It’s a pity Levi Johnston doesn’t have this much class.
