Whitmer kidnap suspects don't want jury to hear comments in video
Hey Trumpanzees, get a load of some of your heroes.
Objection, irrelevant , cries the defense, 'the conversation had nothing to do with the alleged plot to kidnap the governor, but was merely tough talk by an angry citizen venting his frustration over traffic tickets.'
Goes to state of mind , says the prosecution, AND the words 'if they encounter police during a reconnaissance'....for the purpose of kidnapping the governor....very definitely links the threat of violence to the police to that purpose.
Judge: overruled .
(Detroit Free Press)
A man accused of plotting to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer said he wanted to kill cops — "as many of those mother f...... as I can" prosecutors allege, though the defendant doesn't want jurors to hear any of that.
Neither do his alleged cohorts, who are fighting to keep the jury from hearing those comments, which are part of a video that prosecutors want to show jurors when the case goes to trial in October.
According to the government, the video captures defendant Brandon Caserta expressing frustration with law enforcement and government, and allegedly instructing his “coconspirators" that if they encounter police during a reconnaissance, "they should give the officers one opportunity to leave, and kill them if they did not comply.”
The defense argues that the conversation had nothing to do with the alleged plot to kidnap the governor, but was merely tough talk by an angry citizen venting his frustration over traffic tickets.
The defense argues this video is " irrelevant," "unfairly prejudicial," and "has nothing to do with kidnapping the Governor." .............(more)

22. '...if they encounter police during reconnaissance...'
Reconnaissance for what?, taking the kiddos to the playground?
Unfairly prejudicial my ass.
1. Good heavens. Is there a total IQ score of 70 between them?
Looks may not "make" the man, but they certainly can give one a clue.
BTW, what is going on with the guy's earlobes (middle on the bottom)?
2. That picture is featured in the journal "Recessive Genetics Quarterly"
12. Inbred incestuous incel insurrectionists
8. Good God in Butter what a group of dead enders
Crystal meth and vodka for breakfast and onto listening to hate talk radio/tv or
fringe web sites.
25. How about the IQ of the lawyers? Talking about killing cops had nothing to do with the kidnapping
I mean, lets talk about other things, like the plan to kidnap the governor, but not about killing cops, even though if the cops come to rescue the governor then they might need to kill a few...but other than that? its just "boys locker room talk"...
17. Not exactly GQ material. Makeovers needed for the lot of these terrorists.
I hear there are some pretty good jailhouse barbers, but they need w-a-a-a-a-y more than that.
