The Michigan Attorney General’s Office executed search warrants at the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) headquarters in Lansing and a private residence in Farmington Hills on June 18. Details about the investigation remain undisclosed, but officials confirmed the operation is part of an ongoing probe. MEDC oversees corporate subsidy programs and initiatives to grow Michigan’s population and economy. All employees were evacuated from the MEDC building during the search. Governor Gretchen Whitmer and MEDC CEO Quentin L. Messer, Jr. are currently on an economic development trip to Australia. Further updates are expected as more information becomes available.
