GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) — Three days and still no verdict. Jurors have gone home for the night in the trial of four men accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. The judge reminded them to keep their thoughts private when away from the courthouse. Adam Fox, Barry Croft Jr., Daniel Harris and Brandon Caserta are charged with conspiracy. Croft is from Delaware while the others are from Michigan. Defense lawyers argue that the group was manipulated by an informant who was taking direction from the FBI. The trial began with jury selection on March 8.
