A Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist is filing a lawsuit against Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) to force her to release the COVID-19 death toll data from nursing homes, similar to what was released in New York.

Charlie LeDuff, who won a Pulitzer Prize for his contribution to a 2001 New York Times series about race in America, announced on his radio show in Detroit that he, along with the Mackinac Center, would sue Whitmer over the lack of data regarding nursing home data.

“The Whitmer administration has not fulfilled my request or our request on the No Bulls**t News Hour for COVID death data that may shed light on the true extent of the nursing home devastation. This, in my opinion, is a violation of state law, and more so and this is not an opinion, it is a danger and a disservice to our institutionalized elders who have borne the brunt of the suffering and continue to bear it.”

“{Gov. Andrew] Cuomo in New York is now under Federal investigation, a second one apparently for misleading the public whose nursing home playbook was copied by Whitmer. This in the aftermath of an investigation conducted by the office of the New York State Attorney General, a democrat,” LeDuff said, according to a transcript from RedState’s T. LaDuke.

“Release the data Madame Governor but she won’t, so Steve Deliee, the lead policy lawyer on transparency and open government with the august and well-regarded Mackinac Center the non-partisan think tank here in Michigan, they have agreed to take our case to sue the Whitmer administration for the death data in these nursing homes.”

LeDuff made the announcement on his radio show while speaking with Janice Dean, a Fox News meteorologist who has led the charge against Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D-NY) treatment of nursing home patients during the coronavirus pandemic.

Whitmer followed Cuomo’s lead in mandating that nursing homes needed to accept coronavirus-positive patients regardless of whether or not they were equipped to quarantine and treat those individuals. In New York, at least 14% of the state’s pre-COVID nursing-home population died following the policy.

Whitmer has not received the same level of scrutiny over her nursing home decision, but that may change with LeDuff’s lawsuit.
