UPDATE: I read somewhere later that the D.A. is doing this as a stunt, but we’ll see.
2ND UPDATE: Here it is.
FLINT, MI – Felony and misdemeanor charges have been issued against three state and city employees in connection to the city’s water crisis.
Genesee District Court Judge Tracy Collier-Nix authorized charges, Wednesday, April 20, for Flint employee Michael Glasgow and Michigan Department of Environmental Quality employees Stephen Busch and Michael Prysby.
Glasgow is accused of tampering with evidence when he allegedly changed testing results to show there was less lead in city water than there actually was. He is also charged with willful neglect of office.
Prysby and Busch are charged with misconduct in office, conspiracy to tamper with evidence, tampering with evidence, a treatment violation of the Michigan Safe Drinking Water Act and a monitoring violation of the Safe Drinking Water.
