Roy McGrath was indicted on Tuesday on wire fraud and embezzlement charges related to the six-figure severance payout he received after leaving his position as director of the Maryland Environmental Service (MES) on May 30, 2020. McGrath left that position to serve as Maglev Hogan's chief of staff, a position he held from June 1, 2020 to Aug. 17, 2020. [...] If McGrath is convicted on all of the federal charges, which include four counts of wire fraud and two counts of embezzlement, he could face up to 100 years in prison. Additionally, McGrath faces 27 state charges that each carry a maximum sentence of five years in prison.
Plans call for the treatment center to be developed on the grounds of the former Baltimore City Detention Center, which was closed in 2015. The old building has been nearly demolished to make way for the new facility. Gov.

The usual nonsense about "natural immunity" comes up every time. I can't even!
And, I agree, they should lose their pension. This is no laughing matter. Do they think this is a good time to renegotiate pay? Chicago is safer than it's been in decades! https:/policetribune.com/chicago-pd-may-withhold-pensions-from-cops-who-retire-while-not-complying- with-vaccine-mandate
