LANSING - Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is announcing the outcomes of five public integrity investigations, which resulted in charges in four cases involving law enforcement officers and clearing a fifth case of any criminal wrongdoing.
The cases were reviewed and evaluated for the proper charges by the Department s Public Integrity Unit (PIU). The investigating agency that worked alongside the Department is mentioned in the case summaries below. It is imperative that those willing to protect and serve do so with utmost integrity, Nessel said. In instances where officers abuse their power and therefore disrespect the badge, our team stands ready to ensure accountability.
"After you rape someone why would an assailant post a picture on social media - why he would do that? He knew he wouldn't get in trouble," attorney Todd Flood said.
