A special agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation involved in the operation that resulted in a group of men being charged for allegedly plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer was criminally charged on Monday in connection to a domestic incident.
Richard Trask was arraigned in a Michigan court on one count of assault with intent to do great bodily harm, less than a murder charge, after a domestic incident with his wife on Sunday and subsequently released on a $10,000 recognizance bond, according to the Detroit News.
Trask, 39, began his stint at the FBI in 2011 and has worked on terrorism and domestic extremism investigations, according to court documents. At least one of the investigations became a major story last October during some of the most politically tense moments of the coronavirus pandemic.
Federal prosecutors relied on the findings of an FBI investigation that began in early 2020 in charging six members associated with militia group "Wolverine Watchmen" that allegedly planned a conspiracy to kidnap Whitmer, a Democrat.
In an Oct. 6 affidavit, Trask swore to an account detailing what agents discovered during their investigation, a document integral to the government's case.
"Several members talked about murdering 'tyrants' or 'taking' a sitting governor," the affidavit said. "The group decided they needed to increase their numbers and encouraged each other to talk to their neighbors and spread their message."

Damn good work by the responding Social Workier.
What do you want to bet he still has his guns?
Hannity has it backwards, it’s 99% bad, 1% good, and I’m not sure they really exist.
................................................
Is he still yapping about the 99% FIB saints? He’s somewhat of a moron, and he’s getting worse by the day. Simply CANNOT learn to keep his mouth shut. Prattles on nonstop until it becomes an unbearable torture to listen to him. The Elizabeth McDonald and Larry Kudlow programs on Fox Business are much better.

It doesn’t look like he’s a SA but just an informant.
