Jury finds 2 men not guilty in Whitmer kidnap case; unable to reach verdicts on 2 others


Grand Rapids — Jurors acquitted two men Friday accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and deadlocked on charges against the two alleged ringleaders, delivering a staggering blow to the government in one of the largest domestic terrorism cases in recent U.S. history.

Chief U.S. District Robert Jonker declared a mistrial on kidnapping conspiracy charges against accused ringleaders Adam Fox, 38, of Potterville, and Barry Croft, 46, of Delaware. Accused plotters Daniel Harris, 24, of Lake Orion, and Brandon Caserta, 34, of Canton Township, were being freed Friday afternoon after nearly two years behind bars.


Dem heads are going to explode.

Dem heads are going to explode.

Wow. Must be 1 or 2 Trumpsters on that jury.

Wow. Must be 1 or 2 Trumpsters on that jury.

That was enough to prevent a FBI lynching.

 

[TNHarley]

Sounds like they should go after the FBI agents involved.

I know why you guys side with the kidnappers

Whitmer blamed former President Donald Trump for fomenting anger over coronavirus restrictions and refusing to condemn right-wing extremists like those charged in the case.

Wow. Must be 1 or 2 Trumpsters on that jury.

Oh, two were acquitted outright so according to you they must have all been Trump supporters.

 

[sealybobo]

Sounds like they should go after the FBI agents involved.

Because you believe the kidnappers and their lawyer?

Sounds like you want to give conservative criminals a free pass. Seems like you're doing the same thing blacks did for OJ.

 

[Polishprince]

Wow. Must be 1 or 2 Trumpsters on that jury.

They all weren't Biden Devotees for sure. Bidenistas would have convicted them even without evidence.

The jury found two not guilty and hung-up on the other two. Seems a thoughtful jury to me.

 

[sealybobo]

Not enough evidence on those two. What about the main two?

See, this is the problem with Trump making the government the enemy.

Oh, and I just want this to go on record. So you're against our intelligence community? Basically, cops? You're anti police? Do you want to defund the FBI?

Maybe you have more in common with BLM than you realize. This is a great breakthru.

 

[sealybobo]

No. Seems like some trumpies refuse to find the other two guilty. I agree with you on the other two.

 

[1srelluc]

No. Seems like some trumpies refuse to find the other two guilty. I agree with you on the other two.

Evidently the FBI did not have the goods on the other two, at least by a reasonable doubt.

 

[StashMan]

Nice to see some real justice in this country.

 

[theHawk]

Wow. Must be 1 or 2 Trumpsters on that jury.

Poor epic fail for the radical left and the corrupt DoJ.

 

[Leo123]

There were more FBI agents involved in this kidnap plan than actual perps.

Mistrial doesn't mean acquittal. It doesn't mean innocent nor guilty. It just means that there is something wrong with the legal proceedings. The need to be retried in a different court with a different jury and judge.

It’s been my experience that lefties don’t show up for jury duty.

If you right than it was set up and a way for the FBI to get out of it and everyone walk free.

100%

It also could be that one piece of evidence was collected illegally and if presented in court would cause an acquittal.
