State Prosecutor Robert Rohrbaugh said the Xbox was one of several items scheduled for eBay sale following Dixon's conviction on embezzlement charges stemming from allegations she took about $500 worth of gift cards intended for the poor, The Baltimore Sun reported Tuesday. Advertisement Dixon resigned from office Feb. 4 as part of a plea agreement and was ordered to complete 500 hours of community service and surrender the Xbox and several other valuable items. Rohrbaugh said further items, including the former mayor's two fur coats and camcorder, are expected to be auctioned on eBay in the coming days. The prosecutor said proceeds from the sales will go to Youthworks, a Dixon-created project aimed at finding summer jobs for local youths.
