Flint water judge orders state's top doc to face jury for involuntary manslaughter

[Siwsan]

FLINT, MI -- Michigan’s chief medical executive was bound over to circuit court on charges including involuntary manslaughter, obstruction of justice and lying to a peace officer, a Genesee District Court judge ruled Friday, Dec. 7.

Judge William Crawford made the decision to bind over Dr. Eden Wells for trial in Genesee Circuit Court, saying special prosecutors showed there was probable cause to believe a homicide occurred during the Flint water crisis and that she committed it.

“It is not this court’s duty to determine guilt or innocence,” Crawford said.

Crawford said questions about Well’s responsibilities during the water crisis “must be determined by a jury.”

1. When will Gov Rick Snyder get his?

3. Probably never

But, any hope he had for continuing in Michigan politics is dead. Under other circumstances, I could have seen him possibly challenging Debbie Stabenow, this past election cycle. Or even Senator Gary Peters, when he is up for re-election in 2020.

Now I'm betting he will end up with a cushy job with the Nestle Corporation.

2. We need more of this throughout government/corporations. Hold them accountable.

5. Remember we have the same thing happening nationally

Like what happened in Flint. Another business man neglecting the safety of the people over making more profits , hurting and killing people , trying to cover it up too, like trump is doing to the country now.
