"Testimony Unveils Alleged Conspiracy in Fake Elector Plot Tied to Trump Team"

James Renner, the only individual to reach a cooperation agreement in Michigan's fake elector case, testified in court that the group of Republicans believed they were doing the right thing by attempting to deliver the state's electoral votes to former President Donald Trump despite his election loss in 2020. Renner detailed how the group was told the process was appropriate and necessary in case of a successful recount, but prosecutors argued that the situation in Hawaii, which inspired the attempted action in Michigan, was not relevant. The preliminary examinations will determine whether there is enough evidence to send the group to a jury trial, and Renner is the only individual initially charged to have reached a cooperation agreement with prosecutors.
