Detroit (AP) -- Fifteen people have been charged in an investigation of how Flint's water became contaminated with lead in 2014-15 and a related outbreak of Legionnaires' disease. Seven people have pleaded no contest to misdemeanors in deals that will leave them without a criminal record.
Michael Prysby, Stephen Busch, Liane Shekter Smith, Adam Rosenthal, all from the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality.
Mike Glasgow and Daugherty "Duffy" Johnson, who both worked for the city of Flint.
Corinne Miller of the state Department of Health and Human Services.
Charges are pending against eight people:
Nick Lyon, former director of the state health department. Involuntary manslaughter, misconduct in office.
Dr. Eden Wells, former Michigan chief medical executive. Involuntary manslaughter, obstructing justice, lying, misconduct in office.
Nancy Peeler and Robert Scott of the state health department. Misconduct in office, conspiracy.
