Members of the Maryland Legislature are allocated funds to award legislative scholarships to students attending Maryland colleges or for Maryland students attending colleges outside of Maryland that offer programs unavailable at any Maryland institution. According to the charging document, the former legislative aide worked for a Maryland State Senator and used her position to allocate $20,000 of scholarship funds from the Senator’s Office to her own educational institution without the knowledge or consent of the Senator. She continued to access the Senator’s email address after she no longer worked in the Senator’s Office to ensure she continued to receive the scholarship funds. Source: Maryland State Prosecutor
