Baltimore County elections and Baltimore City, Beyond the Wire

from WYPR News Roundup

Differences on how to handle evidence from decades-old sexual assault cases are keeping Baltimore County from accessing more than five million dollars in state funds. That’s happening as Baltimore County’s states’ attorney election hits a fever pitch. Céilí Doyle, with our news partner The Baltimore Banner, tells us about how that’s being handled, and WYPR’s award-winning reporter, John Lee, takes us through the county ballot races from states’ attorney to county council to county executive. We pass the mic to a career counselor who helps women navigate careers that sometimes pivot, and one Baltimore documentarian takes a hard look at The Wire and reclaims Baltimore’s past, present, and future in her new film, Beyond the Wire.
