Keep Marilyn Mosby as Baltimore City State's Attorney

The Issue

Marilyn J. Mosby has been Baltimore State's Attorney since January 8, 2015 after serving as Assistant State's Attorney for more than seven years. She comes from the line of five generations of law enforcement and is an alumni of Tuskegee University. Marilyn has been an active member and advocate for the black community and has used her career for the betterment her people. She has worked and fought for justice in the high profile murder of 25-year-old Freddie Gray, which was committed by six police officers. Even in the acquittal and mistrial of the officers, Marilyn never stopped fighting and has become the target of many groups because of her refusal to back down. She has now been targeted by John F. Banzhaf III, a George Washington University Law School professor who has filed a complaint of disbarment charges against her as well as Maryland Del. Pat McDonough. An article from The Baltimore Sun on June 29, 2016, quotes Banzhaf stating that she is "causing problems for the city of Baltimore." Branzhaf also stated that he does not have a "political ax to grind", however he has continuously imposed his personal views on the justice system, primarily in high profile cases (i.e. the Duke Lacrosse case, resulting in he prosectuor's disbarment). John Branzhaf is using his power and influence to issue the loss of Marilyn Mosby's career and reputation. Marilyn Mosby has been receiving harassing, sexist, racist hate mail including death threats simply because she wants justice to be served. We ask that you please sign this petition to help keep Marilyn J. Mosby Esq. in office as State's Attorney and to continue fighting for us as a community. Once you sign, please share and send this to any and everyone you know. This petition will be sent to every House Representative, Senate member and members of the Maryland Bar Association.
