MI-AG: Ex-wife's claims rattle Michigan attorney general race (R candidate). [View all]

Lansing — A former Catholic school administrator who went on to primarily handle divorce and child custody cases and has never run for political office before might soon become the Republican nominee for Michigan's top law enforcement position.

Opponents of 43-year-old lawyer Kevin Kijewski of Birmingham have argued that his lack of prosecutorial experience makes him a risky GOP pick for attorney general as the party attempts to climb back into power in Lansing.

Bolstering their concerns, they've said, are the details of a 2020 domestic violence charge against Kijewski, which was eventually dismissed. But the allegations involved his then-wife discovering "a type of sex coupon book made by another woman" in his car, according to a police report obtained by The Detroit News.

Kijewski's supporters have contended that his unusual professional background is actually a benefit and that voters now prefer outsiders for key offices.
