Inspector General Finds Fraudulent Invoices In Baltimore
Inspector General Isabel Cummings has filed a lawsuit against the Baltimore Mayor's Office to address restrictions on her investigative powers. Cummings alleges that the city and the mayor's office are blocking her ability to investigate fraud, waste, and abuse. The legal action seeks to restore the independence and efficacy of the Inspector General's office. The report also revealed that juvenile arrest records and personal information were released to hundreds of individuals via a Gmail account. Councilman Mark Conway, the committee chair, described the accusations as deeply disturbing during a hearing at City Hall. The Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Safety and Engagement is involved in the investigation.
