Judge Reduces Sentence of Man Involved in Whitmer Kidnapping Plot

A federal judge reduced the sentence of a man who pleaded guilty to participating in a foiled plot to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, a Democrat, after his testimony assisted in the conviction of the ringleaders last month.

Ty Garbin, 26, was resentenced Friday to 30 months in prison, down from the 75 months he received last year.

His testimony helped the U.S. government secure the convictions of two men who led the plot to abduct the governor from her vacation home in northern Michigan in 2020 in response to her COVID-19 restrictions.

U.S. District Judge Robert Jonker cut the sentence following the “substantial assistance” that Garbin gave federal attorneys, the judge’s written order said. (Read more from “Judge Reduces Sentence of Man Involved in Whitmer Kidnapping Plot” HERE)
