Now the feds are looking for answers too. Our correspondent first reported on these concerns here weeks ago, before flints crisis made the headlines. They are not people that are disposable. We just are not. It is a crime for people to be serviced with water that is classified by the e. P. A. As toxic waste reporter in this ladys house in flint michigan i have a filter here. This is one of the certified ones that filters out the led. Reporter cold water runs through a new filter, but the 52yearold stroke survivor says she still wont drink it i have to depend on others family members and friends to take me places and help me to go and get bottled water.
