After an investigation by J. Edgar Hoover and the U.S. Post Office, the Attorney General brought a charge of mail fraud against Garvey in connection with stock sales of the Black Star Line. The accusation centered on the fact that corporation did not own a ship pictured on one of the company's stock brochures. The prosecution produced as evidence a single empty envelope which it claimed contained the brochure. During the trial, a man by the name of Benny Dancy testified that he didn't remember what was in the envelope, although he regularly received brochures from the Black Star Line. However, the Black Star Line did own and operate several ships over the course of its history and was in the process of negotiating for the disputed ship at the time of the controversy.

Of all those charged in connection with the enterprise, only Garvey was found guilty of using the mail service to defraud. His supporters called the trial fraudulent. While there were serious accounting irregularities within the Black Star Line and the claims he used to sell Black Star Line stock could be considered misleading, Garvey's prosecution may have been politically motivated. In any case, in 1925, Garvey was convicted and sentenced to a five-year term in the Atlanta Federal Prison.

To this day, efforts to exonerate him continue. His sentence was eventually commuted by President Calvin Coolidge. Since Garvey had been convicted of a felony and was not a U.S. citizen, federal law required his immediate deportation. Upon his release in November 1927, Garvey was deported via New Orleans to Jamaica, where a large crowd met him at Orrett's Wharf in Kingston. A huge procession and band converged on UNIA headquarters.

Garvey was born in St. Ann's Bay, Saint Ann Parish, Jamaica to Marcus Mosiah Garvey Sr., a mason, and Sarah Jane Richards, a domestic worker and farmer. Of his eleven siblings only Garvey and his sister Indiana reached maturity. Garvey's father was said to have a large library and it was from his father that he gained his love for reading.

Garvey is best remembered as an important proponent of the Back-to-Africa movement, which encouraged those of African descent to return to their ancestral homelands. This movement would eventually inspire other movements, ranging from the Nation of Islam, to the Rastafari movement, which proclaims Garvey to be a prophet. Garvey said he wanted those of African ancestry to "redeem" Africa and for the European colonial powers to leave it.
