AG Dana Nessel to U-M: For sex abuse investigation, all privilege must be waived

The same day three men said they were sexually abused by former University of Michigan doctor Robert Anderson, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel called a news conference to respond — and send a message to the state Legislature and the university.

Her office, she said Thursday, would investigate those allegations, but with two big two conditions.

First, the state Legislature must appropriate money for the investigation, similar to what it did for the sex scandal investigation at Michigan State University. And second, U-M must cooperate, be completely transparent and waive all attorney-client privileges, which was not done in MSU's abuse scandal.
