Baltimore State Attorney Marilyn Mosby, whose career has been boosted by Vice President Kamala Harris, is now facing a federal investigation with a number of subpoenas.
The power couple Marilyn and Nick Mosby of Baltimore are the target of a federal grand jury investigation, with investigators issuing several subpoenas, including one to Union Baptist Church, according to documents obtained by FOX45. Nick Mosby is the president of the Baltimore City Council.

Investigators served the church with a summons and investigated the Mosbys who donated to the church and, if so, how much. Robert Fulton Dashiell, the lawyer of the Union Baptist Church, confirmed the investigation and told FOX45 that the donation from the Mosbys was less than $ 200.

The Mosbys filed a lien on their home with the IRS in October 2020 regarding $ 45,000 in unpaid taxes.
Nick Mosby made a statement defending himself, saying he had been in talks with the IRS for half a decade because of the “tax consequences of an early withdrawal from [his] retirement savings plan. ‘
“I talked to the IRS for five years straight about the tax consequences of an early withdrawal from my retirement savings plan, which I did to support unplanned expenses after a series of family tragedies,” Mosby said. “I expect the issue to be resolved in the coming days.”
The Mosbys lawyer made a statement after the revelation, and mimicked former President Donald Trump’s “witch hunt” calls regarding the Mosby investigation.

“On behalf of Nick and Marilyn Mosby, my clients are progressive change agents who make them unfair targets for unnecessary investigation by federal investigators,” the lawyer said. “Nevertheless, I can assure you and the people of Baltimore that they have done nothing illegal, inappropriate or illegal. This is a political witch hunt in its purest form, and both will defend themselves powerfully and fully.”
The couple’s lawyer also said they had advised the couple to refrain from commenting further on the media.
“In the meantime, I have advised them not to comment further on these matters,” the lawyer said. ‘As they have done with every other unfounded charge and investigation filed against them, they intend to cooperate fully with the investigation, to fight for the truth to come out, while continuing to fight for the citizens of a city that they both love and are blessed to serve. ‘
Marilyn Mosby’s career was assisted by Vice President Harris.
