Men Acquitted in Whitmer Kidnap Plot Trial Speak Out

Three of the men found not guilty on all charges after being accused of providing support for a plot to kidnap the Governor of Michigan spoke out last Friday at a Washington Day Dinner hosted by the Grand New Party PAC

The men - Eric Molitor, Michael Null and William Null - were all found not guilty by a Michigan jury in September 2023. Over a third of those charged in the plot were ultimately found not guilty, while nine others were convicted
“Everything about this case was corrupt from the beginning. The FBI lied on the stand for seven days” Bill Null said at the event, speaking on the case and trial in which a jury in Antrim County, Michigan acquitted him, his brother Michael, and Eric Molitor of all charges
“This is what they want. They don’t want conservatives, they don’t want a dissenting voice whatsoever” Eric Molitor said during remarks at the event. He says it took months after his acquittal to be taken off a terrorist watch list and the No Fly List
