Baltimore’s Ex-Top Prosecutor Convicted of Mortgage Fraud in Split Verdict

A federal jury on Tuesday convicted Marilyn Mosby, once Baltimore’s top prosecutor, on one count of felony mortgage fraud for lying on an application to purchase a vacation home in Longboat Key, Florida in 2021.

The jury returned a split verdict, meaning that Mosby, 44, was also acquitted of a second charge of fraud related to the purchase of a home in Kissimmee, Florida.

Mosby faces up to 30 years behind bars.

She is appealing the perjury verdict, and is expected to appeal the fraud decision.
