Federal jury in Michigan clears 2 defendants for plotting to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer
A Michigan jury found two men accused of plotting to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer not guilty Friday and failed to reach a verdict against two others. Federal prosecutors allege they planned to take Whitmer in the hopes it would disrupt the 2020 presidential race and maybe even spark a civil war. Mark Chutkow, former U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan, joins John Yang to discuss.
