Baltimore state’s attorney indicted on federal charges

Baltimore State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby, the city’s top prosecutor, was indicted on Thursday on federal charges of perjury and filing false mortgage applications related to her purchase of two Florida vacation homes.

Mosby, a Democrat elected to her post in 2015, is accused of falsely claiming twice to have suffered a work-related financial hardship from COVID-19 in order to request early withdrawals totaling $90,000 from her city employee retirement account.

In both instances, the indictment stated, Mosby fraudulently cited a federal CARES Act provision allowing for emergency distributions of up to $100,000 from her retirement plan in the event of a furlough, layoff, quarantine, reduced work hours, lack of childcare or impact on one’s own business caused by COVID-19.

Prosecutors said Mosby, 41, used the money she received – $36,000 in May 2020 and $45,000 on Dec. 31 of that year – toward down payments on vacation homes in Kissimmee, Florida, and Long Boat Key, Florida.

The two counts of perjury stem from Mosby’s false statements of coronavirus-related financial duress at a time when she was earning a gross annual salary of nearly $248,000 in full, the indictment asserted.

If I had Covid, and wanted to use that excuse and hysteria to draw out money, I don’t see the problem with that. It’s none of the governments business what we do with that money. When will they find something more meaningful and criminal to charge her with?

"Baltimore state's attorney"

What does that mean? Baltimore is not a state; does the state assign a state attorney to major cities? Is Baltimore state the name of a school?

It was her own money she withdrew. Not saying it’s right (for sure, not legal) but this type of thing is almost never pursued, especially at those amounts. Almost same same for the mortgage paperwork as long as you’re making the payments afterwards. You can almost always claim it was done to the best of your knowledge at the time you signed the forms. She has pissed someone bigly off, made a major enemy and they’re out to get her.

This might not seem like much but it is a crack in the dam. Not long ago any mention of Soros was verboten. Now one of his evil agents is under arrest. And stories about this evil Nazi freak actually make it to print. Maybe it’s not much but it’s more than nothing. His power to silence his enemies is waning.

I am glad that the feds are catching up with her, I hope so anyway. She is as corrupt as they come.

In Baltimore, the district attorney is called the State’s Attorney. I don’t know why, but that position is what would be referred to as a District Attorney in other places. That office has jurisdiction over criminal prosecutions in the city of Baltimore, not elsewhere in the state of Maryland.

I know, it is her money, but I guess guess its not legal. She is a particularly inept and incompetent attorney.
