The FBI has determined Roy McGrath is an “international flight risk” and is offering a $10,000 reward for information about his whereabouts.
McGrath, 53, was former Gov. Larry Hogan’s chief of staff but had to resign after it was revealed he orchestrated an outsized severance package for himself from Maryland Environmental Services, a government owned nonprofit he ran before taking a post on Hogan’s staff.
Federally indicted in October 2021, McGrath was supposed to stand trial on embezzlement and wire fraud charges in the U.S. District Court for Baltimore on March 13. He did not show up, prompting the presiding judge to issue a warrant for his arrest and triggering a multistate search. An FBI wanted poster for McGrath lists a possible alias as “RC Baisliadou.”
