(CNN) - A federal jury on Friday found two men accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer not guilty of kidnapping conspiracy and a mistrial was declared for two other defendants.
Adam Fox, Barry Croft, Daniel Harris and Brandon Caserta faced federal charges for allegedly conspiring to kidnap the Democratic governor.
Harris and Caserta were found not guilty of kidnapping conspiracy. The jury also found Harris not guilty on other charges. The jury could not reach a verdict for Fox and Croft, after which US District Judge Robert Jonker declared a mistrial for those defendants.

That was unexpected. It will be interesting to see the analysis of the verdicts.
At the time, there was talk of the group having been composed of some civilians and some FBI plants.
I'll be interested to hear if the FBI guys were the prime movers in this.
If so, that opens up a whole additional direction of questions to consider.
