A former Baltimore city prosecutor who was found guilty of mortgage fraud avoided a prison sentence.
The Associated Press reported that former state’s attorney Marilyn Mosby’s was sentenced to 12 months of home confinement, 100 hours of community service and three years of supervised release. Mosby was convicted of lying about her finances when she withdrew $90,000 from Baltimore city’s deferred compensation plan to make down payments on two vacation homes in Florida. She was also convicted for stating $5,000 of her own money was a gift from her then-husband when she was closing on the purchase of a Florida property.
U.S. District Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby said Mosby showed a “pattern of dishonesty” during her time in public office, but also noted Mosby’s crimes did not involve public funds.
Mosby became a national figure in 2015 when she charged six officers in death of Freddie Gray, which sparked riots across Baltimore. When three of the officers were acquitted, Mosby dropped the charges against the other three.
Civil rights attorney Benjamin Crump told the judge Mosby was being sentenced for a victimless “minor white-collar crime” and suggested she was the victim of selective prosecution, add that the “prosecution of Marilyn Mosby seems intended to send a chilling message to our progressive prosecutors.” he said.
Mosby’s attorneys said they would appeal her conviction and added that she applied for a presidential pardon. The Congressional Black Caucus sent a letter to President Biden backing her pardon request.

What else is new with the progressives/democrats/socialists/marxists? Now yet another one of their own criminals asking to be pardoned by another criminal before he gets booted/voted out of office. Another criminal thinking they can skirt the system and get by with whatever they want because they’re black. And on top of it, being a black woman who thinks she’s a diva and can’t get by with anything anyway. If it were anyone else, especially had she been born of the new crime of being white, then the book would’ve been thrown at her and she would be spending the rest of her life in prison. Lastly, to add insult to all law-abiding citizens, yet another high-profile criminal liar, Benjamin Crump, falsely painting her as having committed a “minor white collar crime” when there is no such thing!!! Praying President Trump gets re-elected and fries her progressive criminal *ss and sends her straight to prison for at least a minimum of the next thirty years. And I hope it does send a message to every progressive in office anywhere so it has them shaking in their boots.
Kathleen,speaking of mortgage fraud , wasn’t your so called God (Trump , convicted of that in New York ? How soon do we forget huh? The very person who refused to allow blacks to live in his housing projects in New Jersey? The last time I checked a buyer is allowed to be gifted up to 3% of the purchase price of the home by a relative or friend with whom has a relationship with the buyer ! Your Trump wants to pardon the rioters who storm the Capital with the intentions to hang a man from the neck until dead . So sad that I probably live next door to you ,with your Trump sign in your yard , what a hypocrite!
