A former Baltimore city prosecutor who achieved a national profile for charging police officers in a Black man's death was spared any prison time in her sentence Thursday for perjury and mortgage fraud.Marilyn Mosby's sentence includes 12 months of home confinement, 100 hours of community service and three years of supervised release.After the hearing was adjourned, Mosby hugged her supporters, some of whom applauded when the judge announced the sentence.

Civil rights attorney Benjamin Crump told the judge that imprisoning Mosby for a victimless, "minor white-collar crime" would be a "grave injustice" that would "magnify the trauma of her two beautiful young daughters."Crump said she "dared to challenge the status quo" while in office and suggested that prosecutors like her tend to be targeted for their "pursuit of equal justice.
