Independent journalist. Director and Producer 'Kidnap and Kill: an FBI Terror Plot,' a documentary about the Whitmer Kidnapping Plot. Christina@Radixverum.com

FULL NAME: Christina Urso

On October 8, 2020, the FBI announced the arrest of thirteen men who were allegedly “attempting to formulate a plan to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer” and “otherwise use violence to overthrow the state government.”

This event, dubbed the “Whitmer Fednapping Hoax” was astroturfed by every mainstream media outlet as proof that individuals they consider “far-right” are dangerous domestic terrorists.

None of these opinions by the media have been based in fact, and these men have lost their livelihoods, homes, relationships, and more because of a failed justice system. Even the two men who were acquitted of their charges (Brandon Caserta and Daniel Harris) have difficulty finding employment and moving past this obvious entrapment because neither the media nor the government is held accountable for their lies.

The FBI opened investigations on these men over the types of memes they shared on Facebook and their alleged discontent with the current political climate, including law enforcement.

The FBI then utilized its assets to fund, plan, and “attempt” to bring to fruition a plan to commit terrorist acts against state actors on domestic soil, and chose this group of men as the scapegoat for it. The FBI used at least twelve informants and two undercover agents (with unfettered access to taxpayer funds) to purchase alcohol, ammunition, vehicles, drugs, explosives, and more in order to frame these men for the felonies that the FBI themselves were committing.

The goal of this film is to expose the festering rot and corruption of the federal government’s police agencies, the media’s venomous bias, and show everyone who is willing to listen that they have no idea how bad things truly are.

We as a country need to make a change and start holding these people accountable – before it’s too late.

UPDATE: Attempting to make real change and hold the three letter agencies accountable is inherently risky.

When we began working on this project, we had a general idea of what would be required to complete it, but due to the massive influx of new information, traveling will become cost prohibitive at this rate. Not only that, but more interviews, data collection, checking, double checking, and triple checking the information we have, and vetting any potential new lead is stretching us thin. We also anticipate legal troubles in the future as this project gains traction.

Funding will also go towards our crew, editor, and other post-production costs (colorist, audio mix...), as well as equipment and music licensing.

We humbly ask for your support - to allow us to provide a voice for the voiceless, and allow these men to tell their stories.

I am proud to present the second trailer for “Kidnap and : an FBI Terror Plot!”

Last year, after conducting just one interview, we released our first trailer, created our fundraiser, and began gathering the resources we would need to tell this important story!

One year later, we are proud to show you all the work we have done and how much we have improved.

Since we started this journey, 3 additional men were acquitted, bringing the total number of acquittals to five. Five men are currently appealing, with the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals about to decide on whether Adam Fox and Barry Croft will get a new trial.

We have done the legwork, filmed our interviews, improved our skills and now we need your help again to get this film finished. This film has been crowdfunded the entire way and we could not have done any of this without your support.

We need your help to get the film finished in the highest quality and distributed to as many people as possible. Please help us meet our fundraising goal so we can hire the people we need to get this done! We know how hard times are right now, any amount you can give will help go a long way. We are in a race against the clock, these men do not have 3 years to wait, and we have no one funding us except you, the viewers, and the supporters.

Please help us finish the film!

I am so excited to let you all know we have a second, extended trailer coming soon. As you know, this entire documentary has been crowdfunded. The original trailer was cut after we had only done 1 interview, we have done so many since, traveling across the country, up and down the state of Michigan, etc. This new trailer will reflect all the work we have been able to do so far because of your incredibly generous support! The new trailer will be posted here and it will go up on our website and all the official socials - it should be up soon!
