Attorney Mahone Faces Grievance Over Tax Funds Misuse
Attorney Donald Jones defending Mahone says no evidence of dishonesty in handling withheld taxes or in his lawyering. Prosecutor Calhoun argues Mahone's conduct undermines justice, noting use of employee tax funds for personal expenses. Nine witnesses, including Gary Hughes and William Lee Jr., testify to Mahone's accounting, integrity, and civic work. Mahone admits restitution plans of 545 dollars monthly, owes about ten thousand to Maryland, with federal talks ongoing. He claims to have provided free legal service during financial troubles and mentions a theft by an employee with no charges filed. The grievance commission focuses on breach of trust rather than total amount. Justice Stepler plans to review cases before ruling.
