BALTIMORE — Lawrence Smith, Dunbar High School's football coach, is under investigation by the FBI for timecard and overtime fraud.
The football coach is also a school police detective. According to online records, Smith earned about $94,000 in overtime pay between October 2020 and October 2021.
This news comes after Smith was suspended due to a hazing incident in 2014, where he was handed a one-year suspension. He was eventually reinstated.
Smith was also a two-time head coach of the year for the Baltimore Ravens High School. After receiving this designation, he was awarded a $2,000 donation towards the school's football program.
The program saw seven championships under Smith's leadership.
Mayor Brandon Scott made a brief comment about the investigation:
