Warrants have been issued for the arrest of former Michigan state Reps. Todd Courser (R) and Cindy Gamrat (R) “for felony charges of misconduct in office related to their failed attempts to cover up an extramarital affair that rocked the Capitol last summer,” the Detroit News reports.
“If convicted on all counts, Courer would face a maximum of 30 years in prison. If found guilty, Gamrat could be sentenced to up to 10 years in prison.”
