Former Detroit Lead Inspector Sentenced for Fraud
Former city of Detroit Health Department lead inspector Donald Patterson was sentenced after he pleaded guilty and admitted he accepted cash to provide a clean bill of health to homes in which he had either done no inspection or provided fraudulent lead removal training. Lead is a serious public health issue causing a range of health effects from behavioral problems and learning disabilities, to seizures and death. Children six years old and under are most at risk.
