LANSING, Mich. (AP) — A Michigan lawmaker who pleaded guilty to a charge of inappropriately touching a nurse practitioner will not seek reelection.
State Senator John Bizon says he made the decision not to seek a second term to spend more time with his family.
Last month, the 70-year-old Battle Creek Republican was sentenced to a year probation after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor count of battery.
The charge stems from an incident in August in which a nurse practitioner says Bizon touched her inappropriately at an urgent care facility where Bizon had gone for treatment for COVID-19 symptoms.
