Michigan GOP gubernatorial nominee Tudor Dixon mocked the kidnapping plot against Gov.
"Gretchen Whitmer sure is good at taking business hostage and holding it for ransom," Dixon said.
Two men were convicted in the plot, in which they sought to kidnap Whitmer from her vacation home.
Insider contacted Dixon's campaign office for comment, but didn't immediately receive a reply Saturday.
"Tudor Dixon's comments are dangerous, an insult to law enforcement who keep us safe, and utterly disqualifying for the role of Michigan governor," he said.
