Baltimore Mayor's Advisor Under Fire

Baltimore’s mayor’s special advisor, Marvin James, is under fire after being spotted at salons and a D.C. political office over three weeks — while only appearing twice at City Hall — raising alarms about possible misuse of city resources, especially since he earns nearly $200K annually and city policy bans personal vehicle use. Mayor Scott has shifted from promising to investigate to now deflecting questions, telling reporters to stop chasing him. City Council President Zeke Cohen, who’s pressed the mayor’s office for answers, insists public trust demands accountability and warned that if the internal review yields no real results, the council may intervene. With no timeline or public updates from the mayor’s office, the situation remains tense and opaque — and the city’s watchdogs are watching closely.
