Thiru Vignarajah harassed and abused staff at attorney general’s, Baltimore state’s attorney offices, former subordinates say

A decade ago, Katie Dorian went to work as an unpaid intern for Thiru Vignarajah at the Baltimore State’s Attorney’s Office because she believed he would help guide her career while showing her the intricacies of sophisticated prosecution. Then a second-year law student, Dorian remembers a law school adviser telling her Vignarajah was a rising star. Instead, according to Dorian, Vignarajah abused his position of authority, subjecting an impressionable young woman to mental abuse and manipulation, threatening to ruin her career if she ever spoke out and even threatening her physically.
