Criminal charges against former Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder in connection to the Flint, Michigan, water crisis will be dismissed, a recent court order shows

Snyder was previously indicted in January 2021 on two misdemeanor charges of willful neglect in connection to the Flint, Michigan, water crisis, the court document said. The charges were punishable with up to one year in prison or a fine of up to $1,000, the state’s penal code shows. The charges brought against Snyder, “were not properly brought and must be dismissed at this time,” an order signed on December 7 by Judge Kay Behm said.
