They said there's been a “misconception” that time soon will expire for any charges to be filed.

Lead leached from old pipes.
There's a six-year limit under Michigan law to pursue certain crimes.
But Wayne County prosecutor Kym Worthy and state attorney Fadwa Hammoud suggest they're looking at key decisions and events that occurred after the water switch.
