The 35-year-old Smith is charged with felonious assault, felony firearm, domestic violence assault and battery, and malicious destruction of personal property on accusations he fired as many as ten shots at ex-wife’s parked Mercedes-Benz during a domestic dispute early in the morning of Sunday, May 10, outside his Detroit home.
While Smith has not been asked to resign, the leader of the Michigan Senate has said he should give “serious consideration” to whether or not he can still serve his constituents.
In a statement out May 12, the day charges were filed against Smith, Republican Majority Leader Arlan Meekhof’s spokeswoman Amber McCann said the charges against Smith are “very serious.”
That same day, Smith was formally removed from his committees and been relieved of his caucus responsibilities.

Meantime, Smith’s officials website has been wiped clean, except for a phone number, email address and a promise that his “office will continue to be open and available to assist constituents of the 4th Senate district.”
Good thing he isn't an NFL employee.

Sounds like a couple of Detroit-Americans to me.
