Maryland State Legislator Sued For Alleged "Foreclosure Rescue" Scam; Police Investigation Ongoing

The Capital Online (Annapolis, MD) reports that state legislator Tony McConkeyhas been sued by a local woman for allegedly taking her ownership in her home under the guise of providing foreclosure rescue services.

The local police are conducting their own investigation in this matter, unrelated to the alleged victim's civil lawsuit, according to the local State Attorney's office. Both the state attorney and the local police have withheld any comment.

The legislator, who reportedly is both a disbarred attorney and was a real estate broker until the revocation of his broker's license, has been sued in the past by another homeowner where allegations of the same nature were made, according to this story.
