Judge Denies Marilyn Mosby's Home Detention Request

A federal judge has denied former Baltimore City State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby's request to modify her home confinement to a daily curfew, citing insufficient justification for the change. U.S. District Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby noted that Mosby did not demonstrate that her alleged new job with G.L.O.M. Global warranted the modification, as travel has not been an issue to date. Mosby, who was sentenced to a year of home detention after her convictions for perjury and mortgage fraud, has faced scrutiny over her compliance with probation conditions, which have reportedly worsened. The judge highlighted that Mosby had only requested one four-hour leave for her job since starting in October, and the U.S. Probation Office was unable to confirm the legitimacy of her employment. Mosby's legal team argued that her job requires flexibility to travel for work, but the court found no compelling evidence to support this claim. The denial marks another setback for Mosby, who has been attempting to transition from her strict confinement to a more flexible schedule.
