Co-leader in Michigan Gov. Whitmer kidnapping plot sentenced to 19 years
"I do think of Mr. Croft as more culpable — he gave Mr. Fox something to hang on to, a higher purpose," Jonker said Wednesday.
Croft, a truck driver from Delaware, planned to kidnap Whitmer from her Michigan vacation home and ease the kidnappers' escape from law enforcement by blowing up a bridge,Prosecutors recommended a life sentence, reminding the judge that social media posts and secretly recorded conversations revealed Croft's desire to spark a “reign of terror” in 2020. Croft is expected to serve 235 months — or 19.6 years.
Croft, 47, was arrested in New Jersey in October 2020, one day after four other men, including Fox, were arrested in an FBI sting.In pushing for a life sentence, Assistant U.S. Attorney Nils Kessler argued Croft Jr. was no different from other terrorists, alleging Croft and his co-defendants took a perverse view of the Constitution and sought to use it to spark a violent uprising.
