Michigan Reporter Is Suing Gov. Whitmer
Charlie LeDuff is seeking information over the handling of nursing home patients during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Pulitzer Prize winning author and journalist tweeted his intention to file the lawsuit in conjunction with the Mackinac Center on Monday.
The Mackinac Center is a free-market think tank dedicated to improving the quality of life of the people of Michigan.
LeDuff wants access to the coronavirus data in relation to nursing homes. He feels the state put elderly patients, who were more susceptible to the virus, in harm s way, while at the same time shutting down businesses that were handling their customers carefully in terms of possible exposure.
