FBI Case Against Defendants In Whitmer Kidnapping Plot Falling Apart
Carmine Sabia December 30, 2021
There are major issues continuing to form with the federal case against defendants charged with allegedly plotting to kidnap Democrat Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
Prosecutors already announced in December that they would not call on three FBI agents involved in the case after allegations of personal and professional misconduct. And one informant in the case has been charged with fraud in an unrelated case, also in December, The Washington Examiner reported.
And now, in a pair of stunning filings submitted on Christmas Day and on Wednesday attorneys for the defense showed evidence that they said proves that the FBI and confidential informants “conceived and controlled every aspect” of the plot to kidnap Whitmer.
“These defendants had no desire whatsoever to kidnap anyone,” the attorneys said.
The defendants, who are members of the Three Percenters and Wolverine Watchmen militia groups, would not have planned to kidnap Whitmer or blow up a bridge close to her residence if they were not entrapped by overzealous government agents, the attorneys said as they asked a federal court to dismiss the case.
“The government wouldn’t drop the idea, and the CHSs [Confidential Human Sources] continued to broach plans — despite official government admonitions barring the suggestion of such plans,” the defense attorneys said. “The CHSs’ handlers pulled the puppet strings the entire time.”
