William Null, twin brother Michael Null and Eric Molitor are the last of 14 men to face charges in state or federal court. They were not among the main group of six people charged with a kidnapping conspiracy in federal court. Molitor, 39, and William Null, 41, acknowledged the road trips but told jurors they didn't really understand the purpose. William Null said he was regularly exposed to “crazy talk" by pot-puffing plot leaders Adam Fox and Barry Croft Jr. and didn't think it was too serious until conversations turned to explosives. But during tense cross-examination, prosecutor William Rollstin reminded him of his anti-government views on social media and disgust for Whitmer, especially her COVID-19 restrictions.

A juror was accused of flirting with a defendant charged in connection with the plot to kidnap Michigan's governor. The female juror was relieved of her duties after "smiling" and "eye contact" between the two. The interactions were with Paul Bellar, 23, standing trial on charges of providing material for a terrorist act. Bellar, 23, is standing trial in Michigan state court with co-defendants and fellow Wolverine Watchmen members Joseph Morrison and Pete Musico. In August, two other men, Adam Fox and Barry Croft Jr. were convicted in the plot, in which they sought to kidnap Gov.
