A clip showing Vice President Kamala Harris showering praise on former Baltimore City State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby in 2018 has gone viral as Mosby faces serious prison time for fraud and perjury charges.
Mosby’s entire defense team quit last month, further delaying her federal trial in which she is accused of falsely claiming COVID-19-related financial hardship to withdraw $90,000 from her retirement accounts, then using those funds to place down payments on two vacation properties in Florida. She’s also accused of lying on mortgage applications by failing to disclose unpaid federal taxes. She has pleaded not guilty to all charges.
A June 2018 video showing Harris speaking at a campaign rally for Mosby on the day of the Democratic primary election for Baltimore state’s attorney has resurfaced as the former high-profile prosecutor faces up to five years in prison for perjury and up to 30 years for fraud, if convicted.
