Ron Clous displaying a firearm during a virtual meeting of the Grand Traverse County Board.
The Michigan Attorney General’s Office is investigating a criminal complaint against Grand Traverse County Commission Vice Chair Ron Clous. He displayed a firearm during a constituent’s public comment in a virtual board meeting in January.
A spokesman for the AG couldn’t comment on the specifics of the investigation, only saying they’re looking into whether or not charges should be filed.
Clous has ignored calls to apologize and step down, and the board hasn’t punished him.
Commissioner Betsy Coffia is a democrat on the board and says this could have been resolved with an apology from Clous and Board Chair Rob Hentschel.

They are among local residents who have criticized a county commissioner for displaying a gun during an online meeting. The official s provocative act came as a caller was raising concerns about right-wing extremism. Some activists say the incident is among many showing that Michigan s seemingly tranquil north has some of the same racial and cultural divides that have ignited protests and violence in bigger cities.
