Baltimore prosecutor handling fatal squeegee shooting removed from case, accused of leaking document to victim’s family’s lawyer

The Baltimore prosecutor assigned to the case of the teen squeegee worker charged with fatally shooting a bat-wielding man this summer has been removed from the case, with her supervisor accusing her of violating the law. Michael Dunty, the state’s attorney’s office’s homicide division chief, on Wednesday filed a disclosure in the case obtained by The Baltimore Sun. In the filing, Dunty wrote that Assistant State’s Attorney Rita Wisthoff-Ito “provided” a motion to Thiru Vignarajah, who is representing the Reynolds’ family as a crime victim advocate attorney, in violation of laws that keep juvenile records confidential.
