Attorney General Dana Nessel’s office is ending its pursuit of criminal prosecutions over the Flint water crisis after seven years of no convictions, a decision that came Tuesday after the Michigan Supreme Court rejected an attempt to revive charges against Republican former Gov. Rick Snyder.
If Flint had been a village in China, the offending officials would have gotten the death sentence years ago.
Living my entire life in the shadows of every great crime being laundered through sham trials really leaves me wondering why anyone places such value in obeying laws. Even if there were “good” laws, how could I ever place faith in them?
