Roy C. McGrath (August 9, 1969 – April 3, 2023) was an American political operative who served as the director of the Maryland Environmental Service (MES) from 2016 to 2020, and as the chief of staff to Governor Larry Hogan from June to August 2020.[1]
McGrath resigned as chief of staff after The Baltimore Sun reported that he had received a $233,647 severance payment after leaving the MES,[2] which led federal and state prosecutors to open an investigation into McGrath's severance payments.[3] In October 2021, he was indicted on charges including wire fraud, theft in programs receiving federal funds, and falsification of records.[4] A three week long manhunt ensued after he did not appear for court, which led to a police chase in Tennessee in which McGrath was shot and killed by both himself and law enforcement at the same time.[5]
