The two men convicted of conspiring to kidnap Michigan’s governor moved on Sept. 8 for a new trial over alleged juror misconduct and judicial interference.
One of the jurors, whose name hasn’t been made public, said before the trial started that he hoped to serve on the jury and that he would make sure the defendants would “hang” if he was able to, two people who work with the juror told defense investigators, lawyers for Adam Fox and Barry Croft Jr. said in the new motion.
