Federal agents executed search warrants at two homes belonging to Baltimore's embattled mayor as well as City Hall, the FBI confirmed Thursday morning.
Pugh has been facing mounting calls for her to resign over a scandal that involves the sale of her children's books to entities that do business with the city. Five of her staffers have now, like her, gone on paid leave. Only a conviction can trigger a Baltimore mayor's removal from office, according to City Solicitor Andre Davis and the state constitution. Baltimore's mayor-friendly City Charter currently provides no options for ousting its executive.
As multiple investigations into the mayor's books ramp up, political analysts say Pugh's biggest bargaining chip at the negotiating table is her refusal to resign in a city accustomed to a high-drama, insular political culture.
I dint du nuffin.
Nothing to worry about sports fans.....all part of the show experience.
That's Never a Good sign... Just ask Michael Cohen and Paul Manafort...
The headline is just spin. Republicans get “raided” by the FBI, every time, but Dems only get “searched.” Just one time I would like to see some integrity. Just once. Still waiting.
Well no wonder Baltimore is so bad this whole damned city is run by criminals.
