30 days ago, a jury acquitted 2 men accused of conspiring to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer amid a clear case of FBI entrapment. Jury did not reach a verdict on two other men--DOJ said it planned to refile charges but has not. The men remain in jail:

Atty for Adam Fox, the alleged ringleader, filed a motion asking the judge for an acquittal for his client. The motion was filed on April 22. No response from the court. Fox and Barry Croft Jr. have been incarcerated since October 2020 yet convicted of no crime:

I think this is poorly written. The two acquitted were released but the other 2 that the jury did not teach a verdict remain jailed with the DOJ planning on retrying.

“they’ll just not refile the charges and leave the 2 men in jail forever”

I suppose the Constitutional guarantee of a “speedy trial” no longer exists.

Meanwhile you can steal a car in Houston and the DA will decline to press charges.

A serious indication of a government that's gone bad.. Political incarceration.

I think some of the main problems are, cops wont arrest cops, judges won't overrule judges and lawyers won't go after lawyers. It's a very unhealthy alliance that's messing up our entire justice system..

So now we have both a gestapo and a KGB.
