Three men accused of supporting a plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer were convicted of all charges Wednesday, a triumph for state prosecutors after months of mixed results in the main case in federal court. Joe Morrison, his father-in-law Pete Musico, and Paul Bellar were found guilty of providing "material support" for a terrorist act as members of a paramilitary group, the Wolverine Watchmen.
They held gun drills in rural Jackson County with a leader of the scheme, Adam Fox, who was disgusted with Whitmer and other officials in 2020 and said he wanted to kidnap her.
Musico's attorney, Kareem Johnson, said he was disappointed in the verdict and would prepare for sentencing.
