A federal judge again denied a request from Marilyn Mosby to reduce her home detention from 24 hours to nine hours per day.
Citing a new job for a California-based company, attorneys representing the former Baltimore State’s Attorney filed a motion last month for modification of her probation conditions, asking permission to freely leave home from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.
U.S. District Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby on Wednesday issued an order denying the request, questioning the validity of Mosby’s alleged new job requirements.
“Ms. Mosby has been unable to provide any information as to what a normal day would look like,” Griggsby wrote. “The United States Probation Office informs the Court that it is currently unable to “confirm [Mosby’s] position is lawful or legitimate.”
Mosby started one year of home detention in June as part of three years of supervised release for perjury and mortgage fraud convictions. Mosby, through her public defenders, told the court she started a new job as the director of global strategic planning with G.L.O.M. Global that requires travel around Maryland on October 1. Griggsby said so far travel has not been an issue.
“The United States Probation Office also informs the Court that, to date, [Mosby] has requested only one four-hour block of employment-related leave, since starting her new position in October, which was approved by her probation officer without issue,” Griggsby wrote.
Mosby filed a similar request to reduce her home detention last month that was denied on Oct. 16. She filed again to modify the conditions on Oct. 29, and that request was denied Tuesday.
Ahead of the second request, a probation officer interviewed Mosby about her new job and its travel requirements, according to court documents, and she said G.L.O.M., which stands for God’s Love Outreach Ministries according to social media posts, oversees four nonprofit agencies.
“Ms. Mosby explained that she assists the parent company in making strategic, business, operational, management, and program decisions to ensure cohesion across the organizations,” Griggsby wrote in her order.
G.L.O.M. Global’s director Allen Turner signed a statement to the California secretary of state last summer stating he was the company’s sole director and there were four vacancies on its board of directors. Mosby also attempted to argue that she needs to travel around Maryland to review potential facilities for the company and meet with potential clients. G.L.O.M. Global is based in Livermore, California, outside the Bay Area, according to state business records. According to its website, the company manages “adult residential facilities, substance abuse programs, transitional housing, and outpatient services.”
Attorneys representing Mosby did not immediately return a request for comment Wednesday afternoon.
