In Fall 2020, the Federal Bureau of Investigation busted what they describe as an organized conspiracy to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer, the governor of Michigan. The plot was a brazen attempt to violently usurp an elected official by a group of extremists. It was not the last one, either.
The events described in this comic rely on reporting on the case described beneath the story, with a primary source being the affidavit from FBI Special Agent Richard Trask.
In the aftermath, six men were indicted on federal kidnapping charges - one of whom, Ty Garbin, has pled guilty, the remainder of whom maintain their innocence - and a further eight others allegedly involved in the plot are awaiting trial on state charges.
