Michigan Jury Weighs Case Against 3 Accused in Plot to Kidnap Governor

Michigan jurors on Tuesday began deliberations in the trial of three men accused of assisting in an elaborate plot two years ago to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer in opposition to strict coronavirus restrictions imposed during the pandemic.
After two weeks of testimony in Jackson County Circuit Court, the court said the jury is weighing the evidence against Joseph Morrison, 28, his father-in-law Pete Musico, 44, and Paul Bellar, 23.
The men, charged with gang membership, firearm violations, and providing material support for terrorism, face 20 years in prison if convicted. They have pleaded not guilty.
