Turns out they knew a lot and did nothing.
I'm angry at this statement because it proves that government officials often times cannot be trusted. I want to know if there were any legal consequences for those responsible for covering up the extent of the flint water crisis.
It was the worst lead levels he had ever seen.
It's crazy that the government was aware that the lead levels were crazy high and they still chose to lie and assert that the water was safe. Elected officials didn't care that children and residents of their city were becoming ill from their direct decisions. It's just upsetting to think about

This is terrifying to me because it shows that the government is willing to cut corners and make criminal mistakes in order to save money.
