A Baltimore Police Officer who was previously accused of stealing over $10,000 and lying to the FBI has been found not guilty on both counts, according to his lawyer Joseph Murtha.
In the original indictment, Murtha said 49-year-old Ethan Glover was accused of taking about $9,775 during the 2016 execution of a search warrant on a home.
Glover allegedly hid the money in his then-girlfriend's apartment and told her he had about $10,000 in cash, Murtha said.
In October 2021, Murtha said Glover was charged with stealing another $1,000 in information funds.
Murtha said if Glover was found guilty, he would have faced up to 10 years in federal prison for stealing government property and five years in federal prison for lying to federal law enforcement.
"I am grateful that the jury saw through the government's case and returned a just verdict," Murtha said.
