BALTIMORE — The jury is deliberating in Marilyn Mosby’s federal mortgage trial in Greenbelt, Maryland.
Jurors were given the case after the judge read instructions on Monday following closing arguments.
They will resume deliberating on Tuesday morning.
Mosby, the former Baltimore City State’s Attorney, entered federal court flanked by supporters who arrived by bus.
They held a prayer circle in front of the courthouse ahead of closing arguments in Mosby’s federal trial.
Mosby is accused of lying on mortgage applications for two vacation homes in Florida to get lower interest rates.
Prosecutors alleged Mosby made 11 lies , including about a federal tax lien she blames on her ex-husband, Baltimore City Council President Nick Mosby. They also allege Mosby lied about a $5,000 gift her ex-husband gave her to provide enough cash for closing on one of the properties. They allege Marilyn Mosby inappropriately funded the money herself.
