Some previously sealed documents in the criminal case against Baltimore
State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby will become public after a federal judge
sided with The Baltimore Sun and other news outlets who requested the
court revisit its decision to seal certain filings.

Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby partially approved the news outlets’ requests in
a ruling Thursday, ordering the clerk of court to unseal four documents
while keeping others closed from public view. The Sun, the Maryland Daily Record and The Baltimore Banner filed the request in late April.

Mosby, through her attorney A. Scott Bolden, filed a motion in support of unsealing some of the documents, which is what Griggsby approved.

The papers being made public are letters between Bolden and Assistant U.S. Attorney Leo Wise that Bolden filed to support Mosby’s motion for a status conference between her, prosecutors and the judge. That conference
occurred March 30.

The letters are about what evidence exists, with Bolden asking the
government to share all exculpatory evidence it has in regards to his
client, even for crimes or transgressions that aren’t the subject of
Mosby’s case.

Mosby is charged with two counts of perjury and two counts of making false statements on loan applications in order to purchase two Florida vacation homes: an eight-bedroom rental near Disney World and a condo on the
state’s Gulf Coast.

She and her lawyers have maintained her innocence, claiming federal
prosecutors are racist and coming after her for political reasons.

The two-term Democrat also is running for reelection, with the primary scheduled for July 19. Her trial is slated to begin in September.

Most of information in the unsealed letters previously was reported in The
Sun — the most revelatory being that prosecutors possess recorded phone
calls between Mosby and Nationwide, the company that manages retirement accounts for Baltimore employees. Mosby’s perjury charges stem from her
making early withdrawals from her city retirement savings account under
the guise of having suffered financial hardship because of the coronavirus pandemic, according to her indictment.

Before Congress passed the CARES Act, state and city employees could not
access their retirement accounts before retiring unless they stopped
working for the government or experienced an “unforeseeable emergency.” Prosecutors say Mosby used that money to buy the pair of Florida vacation homes.

The letters also show Bolden has a recorded interview between
investigators and City Council President Nick Mosby, Marilyn’s husband,
who is not charged with a crime. No details of that conversations were disclosed.

The news outlets filed a motion to intervene in the case because of the
belief courts are meant to be open to the public, and that Mosby’s high
profile and pending reelection meant an increased public scrutiny of the
case.

“It is difficult to conceive of many cases in this area with a greater
public interest in transparency than this one,” attorneys for the news
outlets wrote. “This is a highly public criminal trial assessing the
potential fraud and perjury of not merely a political figure, but the
chief law enforcement official for the City of Baltimore.”

Griggsby’s decision to keep certain documents sealed is to ensure Mosby’s
right to a fair trial is not harmed.

“The Court also specifically finds in this case that there is a
substantial probability that the Defendant’s interest in a fair trial as guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment would be harmed if the document at issue
and the materials referenced therein were to be made public at this time,” Griggsby wrote.

Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the

President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
