Prosecutors: Man charged in U.S. Capitol attack has ties to Whitmer kidnap plotters

...

Questioned by the FBI after his Feb. 22 arrest, Krol "admitted he associates with a number of people who have been charged with the plot" to kidnap Whitmer, according to the court filing.

The filing included a June 16, 2020 exchange on Facebook between Krol and one of the defendants in the Whitmer case.

"Everything said on here is hypothetical, but it's time to move past the rally's (sic) and pointless bulls--- that doesn't work," the unnamed defendant in the Whitmer case said in a Facebook message.

Krol replied that he had said on the steps of the Michigan Capitol the previous fall that he "would rather apprehend tyrants at the Capital (sic), hang them on those beautiful oak trees then kill citizens in a civil war ... just sayin."
