Prosecutor Kym Worthy has charged Christopher Dean Baldwin, 40, of Flushing, Michigan, in connection with stalking Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel and her wife, Plymouth City Commissioner Alanna Maguire.

On March 5, 2024, at approximately 8:34 a.m., Plymouth police officers were dispatched to Attorney General Nessel's family home in Plymouth for reports of a man sitting on her front porch. Upon their arrival, officers came in contact with the defendant.

It is alleged that Defendant Baldwin rang the doorbell of Attorney General Nessel's home, before sitting on her front porch. The Plymouth Police Department came to the address and placed Baldwin under arrest. It is alleged that Baldwin had attempted unsolicited contact with Attorney General Nessel on a prior occasion.

On March 4, 2024, Defendant Baldwin came to a Plymouth commission meeting in Plymouth Township where Plymouth City Commissioner Alanna Maguire was in attendance.

More specific facts will be placed on the record in court.

Christopher Dean Baldwin has been charged with two counts of Misdemeanor Stalking.*

"The Wayne County Prosecutor's Office will always take any and all threats against public officials very seriously. This simply will not be tolerated. Unfortunately, in today's climate threats to elected and other officials have become normalized. Not by the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office, ever," said Prosecutor Kym Worthy.

Baldwin was arraigned today in 35th District Court before Judge Michael Gerou and given a $100,000/10% bond with a GPS tether. He is also ordered to have no contact with the victims, no controlled substances or alcohol, and to surrender all firearms. A Pre-Trial is scheduled for March 15, 2024, at 9:00 a.m., before Judge James Plakas. Please request a photograph of the defendant from the Plymouth Police Department.

*The charges are allegations and defendants are presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
