A state prosecutor may be preparing to charge Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer with criminal counts over her administration's treatment of COVID-19 patients in nursing homes.
"If we find there's been willful neglect of office, if we find there's been reckless endangerment of a person's life by bringing them in [to the homes], then we would move forward with charges against the governor. Of course, we would. Nobody's above the law in this state," Former state Senator and Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido told WXYZ Detroit.
