Three men accused of participating in a scheme to abduct Democratic Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer were reportedly declared not guilty on Friday following a two-week trial.
Early in October 2020, the FBI declared they had detained 13 guys who they believed were planning to abduct Whitmer and topple the state government.
The Wolverine Watchmen was a group that about half of the people in the group belonged to.
