Whitmer this week was taken to task by local media for extending her nursing home order.
“Elderly people have needlessly been exposed to the virus and died as a result of this order,” read an editorial in The Detroit News.
The editorial reported that one local lawmaker, who could not get answers as to how many COVID-19 deaths had occurred in nursing homes, sent a letter on Monday to the district's US Attorney and Michigan Attorney General requesting separate probes of Whitmer’s order.
