Court
ELKTON â A former Cecil County Elections Board deputy director accused of backdating a mandatory campaign financial disclosure form submitted by then-candidate Danielle Hornberger, who was running for county executive, received probation before judgment Thursday after accepting a plea deal.
The intentional tampering by the defendant â Lora Walters, 57, of North East â called into question the validity of Hornbergerâs candidacy and, moreover, her victory over incumbent Alan J. McCarthy in the June 2020 Republican primary, which led to her winning the county executive post in the November 2020 election.
During the courtroom hearing on Thursday, the defense maintained that Walters had acted covertly and unilaterally to conceal a mistake she had made while handling the original form that had been submitted by Hornberger.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) A Kentucky judge has granted representatives of trainer Bob Baffert and the owners of Kentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit much of the horse’s split urine sample to be further tested for betamethasone and other substances.
The Hall of Fame trainer and Zedan Racing Stables last week sued the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission for remnants of Medina Spirit’s urine to prove that traces of the steroid in his system came from a topical ointment rather than an injection. At issue was the division of approximately 25 to 27 milliliters of the sample and how it would be transported to an unspecified New York laboratory.
