Two men charged with conspiring to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in 2020 were 'very eager' to move forward with the plan and expressed no reluctance, a key witness testified Wednesday.
FILE - Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer addresses the press before signing the final piece of a $76 billion state budget into law on Wednesday, July 20, 2022 in Detroit.
Garbin and Kaleb Franks are important witnesses for the government: They, too, were arrested in October 2020 but pleaded guilty and agreed to cooperate. Garbin and Franks said they trained with Fox, Croft and others in a remote area, practicing inside a handmade "shoot house" to simulate a kidnapping. They told jurors how a group traveled to Elk Rapids at night to see Whitmer's vacation home and a bridge that could be blown up to distract police during an attack.
