One of four men charged with conspiring to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has testified in his own defence and denied any role in a wild conspiracy to get her before the 2020 election.

Daniel Harris repeatedly said “absolutely not” when asked by his lawyer if he agreed to abduct Ms Whitmer.
