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 was separately convicted of two counts of perjury in another case last November after a jury found she had lied about hardships she’d suffered during the pandemic to access retirement funds. She is appealing the perjury verdict, and is expected to appeal the fraud decision.
