At least 21 employees in the Genesee County Prosecutor’s Office face potential layoffs. This is due to a state grant program running out of funds. The High-Crime Community Support Grant previously funded their positions. Prosecutor David Leyton warns of severe case backlogs and jail overcrowding. County officials require $1.8 million to retain these employees through the fiscal year.
