Entrapment by the FBI...

...isn't mentioned even once in this story. You would think they would since that is the most likely reason for the aquitals and hung jury on the rest. You'd think the reporters worked for the DOJ and FBI rather than such a fine bastion of journalistic integrity as NBC.

How the FBI Got Whacked By Their Own Boomerang in the Gretchen Whitmer Kidnapping Case

UPDATE:

There were some two dozen people involved in the “Plot to Kidnap Gretchen Whitmer” saga. Fully 12 were FBI assets. They were not there to infiltrate the loser militia members. They were there to egg them on. The FBI helped to define and finance the plot from the beginning. They even set up a fake “militia” for the others to rally around. They also helped to equip, not to mention bribe, the motley crew whom they assembled for the caper. The FBI did not uncover a plot. They were prime movers in fomenting a plot. They did not so much uncover evidence against the plotters as they entrapped them. And it’s not as if this is a one off. It is part of a pattern of abuse and irresponsibility. As the Wall Street Journal’s Holmon Hunt put it last fall, “The agency should be scrapped and something new built to replace it.”
