His two brothers are in two separate unnamed facilities. With inmates with a high profile case like this, its unprecedented, we would have to make sure not only that they are well mentally but physically and that requires our medical staff and we have one medical unit and it would be nearly impossible to keep them separate all the time in the medical unit. Reporter since safety is also a concern and due to all the coverage, the suspects will most likely not be placed in general population before they are tried, but remain in some form of isolation. Theyre like any other inmate for us. We have to protect them. We have to provide them with the services that we would normally provide anyone else, and so that has to be our focus.

A popular Tax Preparation Company is facing serious legal trouble. Several of its Baltimore Area tax preparers accused of heading up a tax filing scheme. Consumer reporter susan hogan joins us in tell us how this worked out. Today marylands attorney general named nine former liberty tax preparers. He accused them of defrauding customers, the state, and the federal government. According to the in area, purposely recruited very poor people, many of whom were homeless, and filed fake tax returns with the promise of paying them 50 bucks. The former owner and several employees of six liberty tax franchises are facing multiple charges of tax fraud. We know that this kind of fraud is a major problem. Reporter at a News Conference this morning, marylands attorney general said all nine worked at liberty tax franchise locations throughout the Baltimore Area. According to the indictment, they used false items in documents to prepare income tax returns claiming an earned Income Credit and a corresponding refund knowing that such reported information was false. Guess what . In every situation, in every return, the return showed that people had earned between 6,000 and 8,000 to get the maximum return of what is known as the earned income tax credit. Reporter according to frosh, here is how the scheme worked. The tax preparers would market6 homeless shelters, drug rehab treatment centers, transitional housing. These charges stem from a scheme where people were recruited almost literally off the street. Reporter the preparers were then allegedly creating false tax returns, listing fake incomes that people supposedly earned as household employees earning between 6,000 and 8,000. The preparers at these locations under direction of the owner wanted the maximum number of returns that they could get to jgenerate the most fees possible. Reporter they are facing numerous charges, including conspiracy to steal from the state of maryland, and worse according to the states comptroller, making advantage of marylands poorest citizens. These individuals are folks that live on the street. They have no income. Basis at all. Theyre just showing up and getting 50 bucks and their Social Security number gets hijacked. Reporter now, the irs along with the state flagged the fraudulent returns prompting the investigation. We did reach out to liberty tax but we have not yet heard back from them. In the newsroom, susan hogan, news4. Thank you. Enjoy the Cherry Blossoms, take lots of photos, but leave your drone at home. Thats the message from federal officials, wendy. They are reminding you and everyone else that its against the law to fly a drone anywhere in the nations capital. The Cherry Blossom festival begins this sunday, snow day, and the trees are expected to hit peak bloom at the end of next week. I think snow day may have been pushing it, v. J. Is that right . I dont know. Is that going to have a Chilling Effect on those blossoms, maybe they wont bloom until the weekend . Exactly. It could push them a day, maybe two days later. We saw what the 80 degree warmth did. Now temperatures in the 30s, around 40 degrees could do the same. You mentioned is this snow event going to be enough that we get to cancel any events for a saturday . No. Its not looking like that at all. This is going to be a minimal event for us. Roads should be fine. Its after 7 00 even that i think were going to start to see the accumulating snowfall even on the grassy areas or on your car. Starting around 3 00, 4 00 p. M. Saturday, yes, youre going to notice it, and its going to feel chilly to downright cold by saturday night. Take a look at storm team4 radar. You can see what were tracking. Quiet across the area now but look at all the moisture down through the south and even up to the north. Were tracking a couple areas of low pressure. The one down to the south being the main one thats going to come sliding up the coast. Evening impact for us, were cool but dry and quiet so i like that for this evening. Temperatures drop to the mid50s. And it will be a while before the mild conditions come back our way. Not until the mid part of next week. Here is a look at your day you can see the flakes falling there. 43 degrees at 7 00 a. M. Were at 44, cloudy conditions at 11 00 a. M. Then around 2 00, 3 00, its a mixture of rain and snow with the temperatures in the mid40s. Again, once the sun sets we start falling down through the 30s. Thats when we could see the accumulating snow on grassy areas, on your car, on the trees. Here we are at 3 00. Thats the white pushing through. During the overnight, there could be quite a bit of a period of snow that lasts. Its just pure snow throughout the area and thats when i think we will get most of our accumulation. Once the sun comes up sunday, were back to the melting, back to a lot of rain mixing in. Look at this at 3 00 on sunday. Back to the rain. Its just going to be a memory. Again, on the tail end of this, when it ends around 7 00 to maybe 9 00 or so there could be a few flurries on the back end, but one to two inches of snowfall in the blue. Baltimore, i95 dcorridor. 2 to 4 in its that pocket up there around i68, around areas of 70 outside of leesburg and frederick where there could be a few icy patches, slick spots early sunday morning. So thats something to watch in this red zone. Again, early sunday morning. As far as frostburg goes as well. So maybe some slushy, a few inches, just wet roads for sunday if you have some travels that will be taking you somewhere. Temperatures will drop back down to the 30s sunday late and that means that early monday morning there may be a few slick spots that we have to watch on area roads as well. Take a look at mondays high, 45 degrees. Tuesday were into the mid50s with sunshine. Midweek too. Thats when we get back to the spring type of warmth as spring arrives on sunday with that High Temperature of just 40 degrees. We have more on our weather alert day for saturday coming up on news4 at 6 00. There are cameras be used to find criminals, unlock smartphones, even pay for some purchases.
