Momodu Gondo, central figure in Baltimore’s infamous Gun Trace Task Force (GTTF) corruption scandal, reflected on the city’s decision to settle over $22 million in lawsuits linked to officers’ misconduct. Gondo acknowledged the HBO miniseries "We Own the City" dramatized events stemming from his actions, emphasizing the show only presented one narrative based on court documents, not the full context behind his decisions. Baltimore faced 39 lawsuits from individuals alleging police abuse during the GTTF’s tenure. Despite the payouts surpassing the amount Gondo admitted to stealing, he argued that much of the task force’s conduct stayed within the scope of law enforcement. Gondo noted that settlements avoided prolonged legal battles, recognizing the city had to bear financial responsibility. The scandal remains a painful chapter for Baltimore’s police and community alike.
