A trial has started for a former top Baltimore prosecutor charged with perjury. During opening statements on Monday for Marilyn Mosby's trial, a federal prosecutor accused the former Baltimore state's attorney of lying about the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on her finances to improperly access funds from a city retirement account.

GREENBELT, Md. — A former top Baltimore prosecutor lied about her finances during the COVID-19 pandemic to improperly access retirement funds that she used to buy two homes in Florida, a federal prosecutor said Monday at the start of Marilyn Mosby’s perjury trial.

The 2022 indictment accuses her of withdrawing $90,000 in retirement funds from her city account while falsely claiming that she had suffered financial hardships from the COVID-19 pandemic. She used the withdrawals as down payments to buy a home in Kissimmee, Florida, and a condominium in Long Boat Key, Florida.

U.S. District Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby agreed to move Mosby’s trial from Baltimore to Greenbelt, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, D.C.
