Lead Prosecutor in Whitmer ‘Kidnapping’ Trial Withdraws From Case
Following a stunning defeat in federal court earlier this month, one of the lead prosecutors handling the trial of four men charged with conspiring to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer in 2020 has withdrawn from the case.
Andrew Birge, the U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Michigan, announced in a filing yesterday that Jonathan Roth “withdraws his appearance as an attorney for the United States,” Roth and assistant U.S. Attorney Nils Kessler represented the government during the three-week trial, which resulted in the acquittal of two men and a mistrial for two others.
Defense attorneys argued the FBI entrapped their clients through the use of at least a dozen FBI informants and undercover agents working out of multiple FBI field offices. The government’s case largely relied on secret recordings captured by FBI assets over a six-month period and involved a separate plot to “kidnap” and kill Virginia Governor Ralph Northam.
After nearly five days of deliberation, a jury of six men and six women in Grand Rapids on April 8 found Daniel Harris and Brandon Casserta not guilty of conspiring to kidnap Whitmer and use a weapon of mass destruction in the process; the jury could not agree on the guilt of Adam Fox, the alleged ringleader, or Barry Croft, Jr.
The FBI is as corrupt as the DOJ and the democrat party

what does Jonathan Roth know, and why is he running away from this case? (and can we look forward to him being called as a witness in the retrial?)
I know Northam is no longer Virginia’s governor, but maybe the FBI could make an exception and go ahead and complete their frame-up by allowing their fabricated conspiracy to proceed to completion? You know, prove to us that they can actually finish a job. Northam deserves it, the POS.
