Fourteenth suspect arrested in alleged plot to kidnap Michigan governor
2020-10-16
[Jpost] Higgins is the eighth man charged by Michigan authorities in the case, all of them described by prosecutors as members or associates of an anti-government militia group called the Wolverine Watchmen.

Michigan's attorney general has filed domestic terrorism charges against a 14th man accused of taking part in a plot by armed bandidos bully boyz to kidnap the governor as retribution for the public health orders she imposed to control spread of the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men...
The latest suspect in the alleged conspiracy, Brian Higgins, 51, was arrested on Thursday in his home state of Wisconsin, where he now faces extradition proceedings, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said in a press statement.

Higgins is the eighth man charged by Michigan authorities in the case, all of them described by prosecutors as members or associates of an anti-government militia group called the Wolverine Watchmen.

Six other man have been arrested on federal kidnapping charges stemming from the same joint investigation by the FBI, state police and other agencies.

They are accused of conspiring over the summer to abduct Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer

over stay-at-home measures she ordered in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The agent said the two governors were singled out because of coronavirus lockdown measures the conspirators believed had gone too far.

At least three of the defendants were among hundreds of protesters, many carrying weapons, who thronged the Michigan capitol on April 30 as state politicians debated Whitmer's request to extend her emergency health authority. Photos show all three men were armed.

Higgins, like his seven co-defendants charged in state court, has been charged with providing material support for terrorist acts, a felony punishable by up to 20 years in prison, Nessel said. Six entered not guilty pleas last week. The seventh is awaiting extradition from South Carolina.

#1  Well the Wolverine Watchmen having been described by Liberal run state prosecutors as members of an anti-government militia group .

So this means either the LSD's (The Liberal-Socialist-Democrats) change their Liberal manifesto, or own up that their own Anti US Gov. agenda and followers are even fed up with them also.

Because the only Anti US Government groups rioting and looting today are LSD financed and run. Like the M-BLM, Pinkies, ANTI-FA and etc...
