InfoFull name: Michael Anthony Francis "Mike" Cox

Born in 1961, Cox entered the Marines after graduation from Catholic Central High School in Detroit and went on to graduate from the University of Michigan Law School in 1989. Cox went to work for the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office in Detroit where he prosecuted organized crime cases ranging from public corruption to drug and gang-related homicides.
