Despite being ordered by a judge to a year of home detention, Baltimore City State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby was out partying with friends, supporters and family members at an event located several miles from her home in Baltimore over the weekend.

In February, Mosby was found guilty of one count of mortgage fraud after she admitted to making false statements on loan applications to purchase two Florida vacation homes.

In May, Mosby was sentenced to a year of home detention and three years of supervised release after being convicted of two counts of perjury by a federal jury in November. She had falsely claimed financial hardship during the COVID-19 pandemic in order to withdraw money from the city’s retirement fund.

On Thursday, Mosby shared a video on Instagram featuring her and her loved ones at a "thank-you barbecue" in Clarksville, Maryland. The video slideshow shows Mosby wearing an ankle monitor.

Mosby must remain confined to her home in Fells Point and communal areas at her apartment complex due to the court-ordered home detention, as reported by FOX 45 in Baltimore.

She is allowed to depart her home for medical appointments, court dates, child care obligations, work-related matters, and to meet with her legal counsel. However, any travel outside these reasons must be pre-approved.

The U.S. Attorney's Office in Maryland informed the station that the former prosecutor is not obligated to seek government consultation prior to making employment or child care requests.

U.S. Attorney Erek Barron's office was contacted by Planet Chronicle Digital for confirmation and clarification on the matter.

The online federal court system did not reveal any filings by Mosby or her team requesting permission to attend the barbecue in Howard County, according to the station.

Mosby's legal team filed a brief with the federal appeals court last week, requesting to have her name cleared and challenging the validity of the two trials in which she was convicted of perjury and mortgage fraud.

Mosby stated in a court filing that her conviction was due to an ill-advised and ill-conceived prosecution from the start.

Although the brief does not claim that Mosby was the victim of a racially or politically motivated prosecution, she maintains that she was unfairly targeted during the investigation.

Mosby was charged with criminal offenses by federal prosecutors due to accusations that she misused her retirement funds during the pandemic, claiming hardship to obtain the money, which she later used as down payments on two properties in Florida.

Prosecutors also said she repeatedly lied on the mortgage applications.

The trial for Mosby's mortgage fraud was initially scheduled in Baltimore but was later relocated to Greenbelt, Maryland, due to the possibility of juror bias resulting from extensive media coverage of the case.

Both Mosby and her ex-husband, Baltimore City Council President Nick Mosby, testified during the trial, with the latter admitting to lying about their federal tax debt due to embarrassment.

Mosby stated that she did not make any false statements intentionally and signed the loan applications in good faith.

Her failure to disclose debt on her applications led to the mortgage fraud charges.

During the trial, it was claimed by prosecutors that Mosby lied about receiving a $5,000 gift from her husband, which helped her secure a lower interest rate.

The conviction was a result of prosecutors tracing the gift back to her account.
