PROSECUTION RESTS IN TRIAL OF MARILYN MOSBY

The prosecution in the trial of former State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby has rested its case after two days of testimony and calling only three witnesses.  Their witnesses included a forensic accountant from the FBI who testified about Mosby’s financial records.  The defense then brought in the president of the Downtown Partnership — Shelonda Stokes — to testify about Mosby’s travel business.  Mosby is accused of lying to obtain a COVID hardship withdrawal from a city retirement account to buy two vacation homes in Florida.
