Julie Kelly has reported extensively on the activity of the FBI, deemed by many as entrapment. Suspects were incarcerated for 3 years, similar to the J6 menagerie in Washington DC. It is interesting to note that Kelly has stated that informants and FBI personnel active in Michigan were re-assigned to Jan 6 prosecutions.
Two other FBI agents who handled Chappel were removed from the government’s witness list amid accusations of unethical conduct. Stephen Robeson, a longtime FBI informant and convicted felon, also was fired for committing at least two other crimes while working on the Whitmer investigation. Known to the defendants as “Steve,” Robeson coordinated numerous events including a militia conference in Dublin, Ohio in June 2020 and training exercises in his home state of Wisconsin. After the government accused him of acting as a “double agent” and Robeson threatened to plead the Fifth, Judge Jonker denied defense counsel’s motion to compel his testimony.
Harris and Caserta, who have been incarcerated since their arrests in October 2020, were released from custody. Fox and Croft will remain in prison as the government decides its next move.
There Was So Much Construction and Lying By Prosecution And Dana Nessel Even FBI Couldn’t Keep Up
Many innocent people were accused of being in an extremist white supremacist militia, yet the FBI had never heard of the group that Dana Nessel claimed were at the root of a conspiracy. Innocent suspects took three years to clear their names in Antrim County and other areas.

Plenty of groups talk about overthrowing the government, “but the question is, at what point do they cross over from expressing their First Amendment rights to free speech to a criminal conspiracy?” said Andrew Arena, director of the Detroit Crime Commission and a former Special Agent in Charge of the Detroit FBI office.
Arena, who also hadn’t heard of the Wolverine Watchmen before Thursday, said the allegations against the group are “eerily similar” to the 2010 case involving the Hutaree militia movement, which was based near Adrian.
