Michigan
Entries whose effect landed somewhere in Michigan (MI) — a city, a county, a campus, a detention facility — whichever government acted. Federal conduct inside Michigan counts here.
This is not the same set as Michigan's jurisdiction page, which records the 8 entries where Michigan's own government was the acting authority, wherever those events happened. The two overlap and neither contains the other: place and power are separate facts, and statewide acts appear there and not here.

Attorneys alleged mold exposure caused Michigan inmate Krystal Clark's medical deterioration at Women's Huron Valley prison; MDOC disputed claim
Attorneys for Krystal Clark, incarcerated at Michigan's Women's Huron Valley Correctional Facility, filed an emergency federal court motion on July 6, 2026 alleging she developed severe mold-related medical deterioration -- including a fungal ear infection, hearing loss, and respiratory symptoms -- after months of exposure to mold at the facility. The Michigan Department of Corrections disputed the allegations, citing a private contractor's environmental test showing no dangerous mold levels, but temporarily transferred Clark to an outside health center on July 9, three days after the motion was filed. Clark's mold-related symptoms, including visible mold in her ears and facial swelling, had also been described independently at a February 2026 Michigan House Oversight Committee hearing.
Michigan prison staff dismissed inmate's blood-clot symptoms as lies days before her fatal pulmonary embolism
Khaira Howard, 28, died at Women's Huron Valley Correctional Facility in Ypsilanti, Michigan on May 13, 2026, days before a scheduled parole release, after corrections staff dismissed her reports that she had lost feeling in her legs. An autopsy the Michigan Department of Corrections released July 9, 2026 found the cause of death was a pulmonary thromboembolism caused by a deep vein thrombosis in her lower leg -- the same symptom a prisoner-observation aide said staff had disbelieved.

Michigan DNR officers stopped Detroit father on pretext of fishing-license check, delivering him to ICE custody
On October 18, 2025, Michigan Department of Natural Resources officers stopped Detroit resident Jose Pedro Hernandez Lupercio, a Mexican citizen with no convictions who was fishing with his sons on the Manistee River in Brethren, Michigan, and the stop led to his transfer into ICE custody. DHS said the arrest occurred during "a targeted operation led by the USFS in conjunction with the DNR," while DNR maintains its officers were present only "as backup" and were "not present to enforce federal immigration laws" — an account contradicted by a federal habeas corpus ruling stating DNR agents contacted ICE after Hernandez Lupercio could not prove legal presence. He was held on $7,000 bond and released in February 2026.

Trump blocked Gordie Howe Bridge opening, benefiting Moroun family donors who gave $1 million to Trump super PAC
President Trump refused to allow the Gordie Howe International Bridge — a completed Detroit-Windsor crossing built jointly by Canada and Michigan — to open, causing cancellation of a scheduled June 11, 2026 grand opening at the last minute. The Moroun family, which owns the competing Ambassador Bridge and donated $1 million to a Trump-aligned super PAC, stands to benefit from the new bridge remaining closed. Canadian officials, including Windsor's mayor, publicly named the Moroun family's financial ties to Trump as the likely driver of his opposition.

Michigan corrections officer altered Native American prisoner's ID with racist caricature, posted it publicly for humiliation, lawsuit alleges
A corrections officer at Newberry Correctional Facility in Michigan's Upper Peninsula digitally altered a Native American prisoner's ID to depict him wearing a feathered headdress and other stereotypical Indigenous imagery, then posted the altered image publicly, according to a state civil-rights lawsuit filed in early August 2026 by prisoner Dylan Leenheer (Gun Lake Tribe). The lawsuit, which names officers Jay Stevens and Robert Marsh and the Michigan Department of Corrections, alleges a broader pattern at the facility -- including two other prisoners, one Black and one of "Indian-national-origin," whose ID photos were similarly altered -- and that no corrections staff involved faced discipline.
