2. The Michigan SC ruling was 6-0 to dismiss against one defendent

I'm far from being a legal expert, but IMO prosecutors used some puzzling strategies during the 4 years the current AG has been in office. When they inherited the case, it was already in progress, but the prosecution dropped all charges and started over with it.

They ended up using a one man Grand Jury to indict several defendents, which hadn't been done before. The Michigan SC eventually ruled it illegal and thus all the charges were dismissed. The AG office stated they are going to refile charges, but unfortunately the clock is ticking on the statute of limitations.

The Judge making the ruling today to dismiss the charges was nominated by President Biden to the Federal Court and confirmed by the Senate earlier this week.
