Republican Michigan Senate leader Aric Nesbitt asked the Justice Department Monday to investigate Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's possible role in a $20 million state fraud scheme after one of her allies was charged in the scandal.
Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel announced 16 felony charges against Fay Beydoun, 62, of Farmington Hills earlier this month. Beydoun is accused of misusing a $20 million grant meant to start a business accelerator.
