City Solicitor Says His Termination Based On 'Unknowable' Information On Ex-Attorney

A day after he fired a contract attorney revealed to have ties to neo-Nazi groups, Baltimore City Solicitor George Nilson was terminated himself.

A statement from Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake says that effective next Wednesday, Aug. 24, Nilson "will no longer be" the solicitor.

"The Mayor thanks Mr. Nilson for his dedicated service to the City of Baltimore and wishes him well in his future endeavors," read the statement from Rawlings-Blake's office, which didn't say why he was leaving the office.

Nilson confirmed in an interview he was fired.

"I serve at the pleasure of the mayor," he said. "My termination was legal, but do I think it was just or deserved? No."
