Lucido under investigation for alleged sexual harassment at Macomb Co. office

from Michigan Advance 5/25/2022

Macomb County Prosecutor Peter Lucido, who faced numerous credible allegations of sexual harassment while serving in the state Senate, is now the subject of another claim — this time from at least one employee in his new office.

WXYZ-TV confirmed Thursday that the Macomb County government has hired a law firm to investigate “complaints alleging unlawful discrimination and/or harassment.” Lucido was notified of the investigation in February.
