Don't forget what state this is happening in. Maryland has been run by a good ol' boy network of corrupt 'Rats for a long, long time.
The 'Rats running the MD legislature do not want to get to the bottom of this, because the bottom of this leads back to the fat 'Rats running MD politics.
All it would take, from what I sense from JimRob's posts on the matter, would be a right (RIGHT) minded attorney to give him justification to bust this story loose. And it is bizzare that such has not happened yet. Methinks there is a lot below the surface here that would amaze us if it came to light.
