The Detroit Free Press reports:
Two of the men convicted of plotting to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer hired a private investigator to go to a juror’s workplace and investigate the juror’s potential bias, according to a newly unsealed court filing.
The men — Adam Fox of Michigan and Barry Croft Jr. of Bear, Delaware, who were found guilty last month of planning to kidnap the governor over her COVID-19 policies — hired the investigator to track down the juror’s co-workers to determine if the juror was biased against them.
The investigation was part of a broader effort by their defense attorneys to get a new trial. The juror was allowed to stay on the case after the judge interviewed the person and concluded there was no proof of bias.

The militia guys & their attorneys are trying to use this juror as part of an attempt to get a retrial.
