BALTIMORE (WJZ) — Gov. Larry Hogan’s former chief of staff, Roy McGrath, was indicted on federal fraud and embezzlement charges Tuesday after he received a severance payment of more than $200,000 to leave his job as CEO of Maryland Environmental Service for the governor’s office, and allegedly represented that Hogan had approved it.

McGrath is charged with four counts of wire fraud and two counts of embezzlement.

First, it was the masking of children that triggered a recent parent-led lawsuit against Pennsbury.

This time, alleged free speech censorship is at issue as the school district faces legal action for the second time in a matter of weeks.

Four Pennsbury taxpayers — Doug Marshall, Simon Campbell, Robert Abrams and Tim Daly — filed a lawsuit asking that Pennsbury School Board’s speech policies be deemed unconstitutional.

The plaintiffs are suing the school district, school board and the district’s solicitors, Michael Clarke and Peter Amuso.

Equity, diversity and education director Cherrissa Gibson is also named as a defendant in the federal lawsuit.

Filed Friday in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, the suit claims Pennsbury repeatedly violated the First Amendment through its previous censorship of public school board meetings.

“Each individually named defendant has either perpetuated the censorship of plaintiffs’ speech, personally directed that censorship or exhibited actual knowledge of and acquiescence in the censorship,” the court document reads, claiming Gibson acted as “a prime ringleader.”

Last spring, Pennsbury came under fire for its restricting and editing of certain public comments from its school board meetings.

Comments from the plaintiffs were cut short and removed from recordings of the public meetings, with the school board citing a violation of Pennsbury School Board Policy 903. The edited videos were then posted on district social media.

As part of a move to improve diversity, the Pennsbury school board on Thursday approved the hiring of a director of equity, diversity and education.

Pennsbury High School Assistant Principal Cherrissa M. Gibson will serve in the new role recently created to address a number of factors, including race, religion, socioeconomic and other issues, board President T.R. Kannan said.

The move comes after the board directed the administration to devise a plan to make equity an area of focus following the May 25 death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer.

In her new role, Gibson will be responsible for coordinating and guiding all efforts to define, understand, assess, foster and cultivate equity among the district’s students, faculty and staff. She also will work to enhance educational programs to promote equity as an essential element in the district while developing programs, services and initiatives to recruit and retain faculty and staff.

She will begin serving in the new role immediately at an annual salary of $142,173.
