Gov. Snyder Talks Flint’s ‘Most Violent City’ Title, City Lockup and Public Safety Scandal

On Friday, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder called in to our sister station, 1470 WFNT, and spoke on a number of topics directly related to Flint.

Snyder talked about the recent news that Flint was once again the most violent city in the country saying "we're actually continuing to make progress" but "things like this don't get resolved overnight."

The governor also spoke of the controversy involving former Public Safety Administrator for the City of Flint, Barnett Jones, who was found to be working two full-time jobs at the same time. Snyder said he's spoken to the Treasury Department about it and that he "wants answers."

Governor Snyder also spoke more on some of the topics from his State of the State address earlier in the week including the plan to fix roads, revamp Michigan’s no-fault auto insurance system and expansion of the Education Achievement Authority.
