This week on Black Coffee, Crime & Crochet, we’re unpacking the rise and reckoning of Marilyn Mosby — Baltimore’s former State’s Attorney who once stood as a national symbol of justice during the Freddie Gray case… and is now facing a federal conviction of her own.

👩🏽‍⚖️ We trace her story from Boston beginnings to Baltimore politics, highlighting her education, career trajectory, and the historic weight of being the city’s first Black woman elected to the role.

🕊️ Freddie Gray’s story is told with care and humanity, detailing who he was and what his death meant for Baltimore. We explore the protests, the pain, and the political pressure that followed — all of which put Mosby in the national spotlight.

💼 Then we dig into the real tea:

• ​The COVID hardship withdrawals
• ​The Florida vacation homes
• ​The mortgage fraud and perjury indictments
• ​Her trial, sentencing, and supervised release
• ​And her ongoing push for a presidential pardon
