- Prince George’s nonprofit faces scrutiny over more than $8.5 million in grants
- Runtime

- Date posted

- Description
- A woman answering a phone number linked to Community on the Frontline founder Janna Parker hung up on 7News reporter Christian Flores as he sought answers about more than $8.5 million in taxpayer-funded grants. The woman did not identify herself and directed 7News to a statement on the nonprofit’s website.
The Prince George’s County nonprofit faces scrutiny over its funding and Parker’s friendship with County Council Chair Krystal Oriadha. Oriadha denies the friendship influenced her decision to select the organization.
Oriadha and County Executive Aisha Braveboy have asked the nonprofit’s California-based fiscal sponsor, the Edward Charles Foundation, to return the money. Community on the Frontline supports the refund request and has promised financial transparency. County officials are calling for an independent investigation into the grant awards and spending.

- A historic F-117A Nighthawk has arrived at the Smithsonian for a future display at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia. Dover-based Air Force reservists transported its fuselage and detached wings from California inside a C-5M Super Galaxy.
The 29,500-pound load required precise positioning and an overnight fix to its tie-down points. Nicknamed “The Overachiever,” the stealth aircraft will go on display after reassembly.
