Lansing Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said her office found no evidence of criminal conduct after investigating a state contract for tracking the spread of COVID-19 that involved a Democratic political consultant.
Nessel released a 29-page report Wednesday on her staff s inquiry into the agreement with Great Lakes Community Engagement, which is tied to Democratic consultant Michael Kolehouse.
However, the report noted that the Attorney General s Office was unable to interview three critical individuals, including a central figure in the arrangement, Andrea Taverna, the Department of Health and Human Services senior adviser on opioid strategy.
Taverna was in charge of developing the contact tracing program. Also, Lynn Sutfin, spokeswoman for the Department of Health and Human Services, and Sarah Lyon-Callo, the state s top epidemiologist, didn t agree to interviews, according to the report.
