    BALTIMORE - Prosecutors say former Baltimore City State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby has shown "no respect" and "accepts no responsibility" and should
    serve 20 months in prison for her mortgage fraud and perjury convictions.

    Mosby will be sentenced on May 23 and faces up to 40 years, but she's
    unlikely to serve the maximum.

    "Mosby has repeatedly and publicly demonstrated that she accepts no responsibility for her actions, has no respect for this court's rulings
    and lacks honesty with the public and candor before this court,"
    prosecutors said in a court filing.

    Mosby has launched a public campaign asking for a pardon and claimed she
    was unjustly convicted in her two trials.

    She continues to say she has done nothing wrong and nothing illegal.

    Mosby's lawyers responded by saying, "Ms. Mosby has a First Amendment
    right to state her opinion on the prosecution and the case... She has a continuing constitutional right to proclaim her innocence and protest the prosecution."

    In two trials, Mosby was found guilty of lying about a vacation home
    mortgage and COVID-related hardship withdrawals from her retirement
    account.

    Prosecutors asked to seize Mosby's Florida condo, which they said was
    purchased using a fraudulent mortgage loan.

    Mosby's attorneys say she shouldn't serve any time in prison.
