The Baltimore City Board of Ethics ruled Thursday that City Council President Nick Mosby violated rules by soliciting donations to offset legal costs incurred by him and his wife, State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby.
The board ordered Mosby to sever all connections with the fund, known as the Mosby 2021 Trust.
In its ruling, the board said when it found “prima facie” evidence of ethics violations, it offered Mosby the opportunity to settle the issue himself, but his lawyer declined to do so.
