Last week we looked at how no one can say for sure where all the U.S. currency is. At the same time, this 12-count indictment came out, accusing Baltimore Mayor Sheila Dixon of perjury and theft.
On page six, the indictment describes how a prominent city developer cashed a check for $15,000, and how a week later someone deposited $6,000 in cash at an ATM to the mayor's checking account.
Dixon denies any wrongdoing. But she and the developer certainly use a lot more cash than most folks.
You can see the mayor in boxing gloves and read the Baltimore Sun's coverage, some of it by my wife, here.
