The water crisis in Flint, Mi has been going on for far too long. However, finally, the city is getting justice as more people are being charged for both how the water became contaminated with lead in 2014-15 and a related outbreak of Legionnaires’ disease. (There are also seven people who took deals that enabled them to plead no contest to misdemeanors that will leave them without a criminal record.)
