Hogan's former chief of staff, Roy McGrath, failed to show up for his federal fraud trial. McGrath, a Florida resident, faces eight federal counts, including wire fraud, theft in programs receiving federal funds, and falsification of records. The charges against McGrath stem from his time serving as the executive director of the Maryland Environmental Service. He led the quasi-government agency before he was brought on as Hogan's chief of staff in June 2020. McGrath resigned as chief of staff to Hogan in August 2020.
