DETROIT (AP) Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel s former law partner has landed a job in her department after working for more than a year as a part-time contractor on the Flint water prosecution team.
Chris Kessel was hired as an assistant attorney general in mid-March and reports to Fadwa Hammoud, solicitor general and leader of the Flint water team, spokeswoman Courtney Covington Watkins told The Associated Press.
Watkins said Nessel was not involved in the hiring decision.
She noted that the attorney general has stayed away from the criminal side of the Flint investigation while representing the state in civil lawsuits related to the city s lead-contaminated water in 2014-15.
