- Michigan prosecutors on Thursday dropped all criminal charges over the deadly contamination of the city of Flint’s water, saying a more thorough investigation was needed before they could proceed with the case.

“Dismissing these cases allows us to move forward according to the non-negotiable requirements of a thorough, methodical and ethical investigation,” Michigan’s Solicitor General Fadwa Hammoud and Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy said in a statement. Additional investigation by the prosecution team has already identified more individuals of interest in the case, they said.

“Justice delayed is not always justice denied,” Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said in a statement.
