      BREAKING: Former Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder and other ex-officials have been told they’ll be charged in the Flint water scandal, two people with knowledge of the planned prosecution tell AP. Lead-contaminated water devastated the majority Black city.http://apne.ws/F9FBMBF

      Snyder was governor when state managers switched the city’s water to the Flint River in 2014 as a cost-saving step while a pipeline was being built to Lake Huron. The water was not treated to reduce corrosion, which caused lead to leach from old pipes.http://apne.ws/tGa3z8I

          One question. Would they be taking this action if he was a democrat?

          And when samples came back with lead levels through the roof they had the results covered up and didn’t notify anyone. THAT is the real crime

          The outbreak was announced by Snyder and Lyon in January 2016, although Lyon conceded that he knew that cases were being reported many months earlier.
