Jurors in Michigan are deliberating in the last trial connected to a plot to kidnap the state’s governor. William Null, brother Michael Null and Eric Molitor are charged with providing support to the leaders of the scheme in 2020. There’s no dispute that they participated in military-style drills and took rides to see Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s vacation home in Antrim County. But they deny doing anything illegal. The jury didn’t reach a verdict Thursday and will return Friday. Informants and undercover FBI agents were inside the group for months before arrests were made in October 2020. Whitmer was not physically harmed. Nine men have been convicted in state or federal court.
