Records also indicate Gov. Rick Snyder repeatedly lied about the emergency manager selection. Mayoral candidate Mike Duggan has emphathically opposed the emergency manager – in public, that is. But e-mails obtained by activist Robert Davis through the Freedom of Information Act show Duggan, the former CEO of the Detroit Medical Center, played a role in the selection process of an emergency manager to take over the city’s finances. In fact, while Duggan was running for mayor, he asked Snyder’s office to hold off on appointing an emergency manager until after the November election. Records also show Duggan, a former Wayne County prosecutor, was to meet with the members of the Financial Review Team, which would be a violation of the Open Meetings Act if a majority of the team was present. In the meantime, Duggan was campaigning on an anti-emergency manager platform. But the lies don’t stop there. While Gov. Rick Snyder repeatedly told Detroiters he was not sold yet on the need for state intervention, the governor and his team were already wrapping up negotiations with Kevyn Orr, a turnaround expert and bankruptcy attorney who was hired March 15 2013.
