A local Michigan prosecutor has indicated that criminal charges could be forthcoming against Michigan Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer over her handling of the coronavirus pandemic as it relates to people who died in nursing homes.
New Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido told ABC Detroit that he is encouraging people who lost loved ones in nursing homes to go and get information from the facilities about the circumstances surrounding their loved ones’ death because, according to Lucido, he can’t access that information due to HIPAA laws. Lucido encourages people to file a wrongful death complaint with police.
“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 then we would move forward with charges against the Governor,” Lucido said. “Of course, we would. Nobody’s above the law in this state.”
Lucido “will be meeting with Macomb County Police to instruct them on how to process and verify the information and bring it to his office,” ABC Detroit reported. “After becoming Prosecutor this year, Lucido asked fellow county prosecutors to form a Blue-Ribbon Committee for consistency investigating these cases. That Association as a group declined and said Lucido should make the request to the Michigan Attorney General and feds. Lucido provided letters showing he did that last May.”
The report said that the U.S. Attorney’s Office would look into Lucido’s request but noted that the attorney general, presumably Michigan’s attorney general, apparently indicated that there was not enough to launch an investigation.

Let’s talk about the “right-wing plot to kidnap her.”
Bet a judge and a court order could motivate a care facility operator.
Let's not.
You're right, they'll push that BS and try to take people's minds off nursing home deaths.
Whitmer is a deceitful, selfish harpy.
We good people in Michigan loathe her but we are apparently outnumbered-----so far.
Charges are POSSIBLE???
Please ping us when they happen.
And, they should happen!!
She needs to be indicted for claiming to “follow The Science while NOT following The Science”.
Retarded she is.
Thanks for the pics Murderous 5. The Queen, Wretched Hitler, aka Michigan Medusa, is crime in the face much like King Cuomo. She’s really ticked that Sniffer hadn’t picked her. Couldn’t happen to a nicer monster. Crimes against humanity and Michigan. Some drones don’t even realize it. It’s been several months since the election and I saw my 1st Biden/Harris bumper sticker on a vehicle in Milford Michigan 2 days ago.

The Gretch who stole Christmas, and took Nana’s life to boot.
You can’t charge them for this. They could be removed from office.
Charlie Baker,the Trump hating RINO Governor of Massachusetts, belongs on that list too.
Let’s cut the BS. They will easily all be re-elected.
yep. the dummies along with fraud keep this places filled with Marxists in power.
And monkeys “could” fly out of my butt.
Maybe her legislature didn’t pass amendments to protect her from irresponsible decisions like murder, seems Cuomo did
NOTHING is going to happen to Gov. Shiny Shoebox Face!!
Trump’s admin relaxed federal regs for Medicare and Medicaid patients in mid-March.
HeilHalfWit, like Cuomo, still sent them back.
Note to investigators: Get the nursing home operators under oath. Find out why they took back sick patients anyway.
Also, Cuomo allowed positive staff to continue to report to work until mid-May when he rescinded the policy. Did HeilHalfWit do something similar?
What our legislature snuck in the budget was civil and criminal immunity for residential care facilities and operators.
Our pols already had immunity.
