What happened
The FBI investigated KEYS Empowers in Baltimore for financial fraud, leading to the resignation of Mujahid Muhammad, who was a member of the Baltimore City Board of School Commissioners. Reports indicate that KEYS Empowers, which received millions in government funds, reported paying out significant salaries while listing zero employees on its federal tax filings.

Why it matters
The investigation centers on the alleged misuse of federal pandemic funding and other government grants by the nonprofit. This raises questions regarding the oversight of public money allocated to local non-profits and the integrity of government contracts.
Brandon Scott is the Mayor of Baltimore, and Jessica Tisch leads the NYPD in New York City.
