Marilyn Mosby completes home detention, begins new chapter after federal convictions
Mosby, a pivotal political figure known for her role in the Freddie Gray case, completed a one-year term of home confinement on June 20.

Former Baltimore City State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby is officially free from home detention, marking a new chapter following federal convictions for perjury and mortgage fraud.
Marilyn Mosby free from home detention after sentence
Mosby, a pivotal political figure known for her role in the Freddie Gray case, completed a one-year term of home confinement on June 20.
The sentence stemmed from two counts of perjury related to alleged early withdrawals from her retirement account under the CARES Act, and one count of making an alleged false statement on a mortgage application for a Florida property.
New chapter
U.S. District Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby, who presided over the case, waived the $1,447 electronic monitoring fee and ordered the return of Mosby’s passport, citing her financial hardship and compliance with the terms of her sentence. Mosby’s legal team noted that the prosecution had left her financially devastated, forcing her to rely on public defenders after depleting her savings.
Marilyn Mosby always proclaimed innocence
Despite her convictions, Mosby has maintained her innocence, framing the case as politically motivated. Civil rights organizations including the NAACP and the National Urban League rallied behind her, arguing she was unfairly targeted. A campaign for a presidential pardon was ultimately unsuccessful.
Path forward
Mosby’s legal journey isn’t over. She has filed an appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, seeking to overturn her convictions and the forfeiture of her Florida property. Meanwhile, the U.S. Probation Office is expected to recommend early termination of her remaining supervised release, reports FOX Baltimore.
Just days before her release, Mosby made a public appearance at the State of the People National Assembly, signaling a possible return to public life.
Whether this marks a quiet close or a bold new chapter for Mosby remains to be seen—but for now, she walks free.
