The Baltimore County Council on Monday is set to decide whether to confirm County Executive Kathy Klausmeier’s pick of Khadija Walker to be inspector general. The road to the vote has been anything but smooth.

The Baltimore County Council was to vote Monday night on the nomination of former EPA program manager Khadija Walker to be inspector general. County Executive Kathy Klausmeier tapped Walker to replace IG Kelly Madigan, who has ruffled feathers in the suburban county.

Baltimore County Inspector General Kelly Madigan has found that a third county corrections officer with ties to Nigeria committed fraud by obtaining a federal COVID loan for a business that did not exist.

Patuxent Research Refuge’s North Tract in Laurel has cut visiting hours. Could the Trump administration could close it entirely?
