A veteran Baltimore prosecutor says in a new lawsuit that her firing from the Baltimore State's Attorney's Office in January was part of an exodus of experienced attorneys that upended cases and may be contributing to this year's crime spike.
Keri Borzilleri, now a Prince George's County prosecutor, claims State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby unlawfully terminated her in retaliation for openly supporting her opponent, Gregg Bernstein, during the 2014 election.
Borzilleri had worked in the office since 2005, tried hundreds of cases and had an "exemplary record," her lawsuit says. Though she was given no reason for her Jan. 9 termination, she said that one day earlier a top Mosby official had asked her about her support for Bernstein.
Her lawsuit, filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court, seeks unspecified damages.

Mosby is a piece of crap
ReplyDeletehe problem is when they win their lawsuit the State of MD or Baltimore tax payers will be manipulated in paying instead of this incompetent person personally.
ReplyDeleteMosby is a drag on the economy. Paid to do nothing but cause trouble and be easy on the crooks. She should have been gone long ago.
