Michigan official fired over Flint water crisis wants job back

In 2016, a task force appointed by Snyder said the Department of Environmental Quality, as the agency was known at the time, misapplied lead-and-copper rules in Flint and caused this crisis to happen. Shekter Smith was charged with misconduct in office and neglect of duty, and put on notice that an involuntary manslaughter charge would be pursued because bacteria in the water were linked to a fatal outbreak of Legionnaires disease. But charges were dropped in 2019 in exchange for a no-contest plea to an obscure misdemeanor that didn t result in any jail time. The case was erased after a year, under a deal with special prosecutor Todd Flood, who said Shekter Smith s cooperation with investigators was important.
