Michigan Supreme Court had canceled a lower court’s indictments earlier this year
A Michigan judge dismissed indictments against several former state officials related to their handling of the Flint water crisis.
The decision followed an earlier opinion from the state Supreme Court that canceled a lower court’s ruling due to concerns over how the indictments were handled.
Genesee Circuit Court Judge Elizabeth Kelly issued an order Tuesday dismissing criminal indictments for seven former officials, saying the indictments were invalid.
