The new charges carry life sentences.
They were added Wednesday in what is known as a superseding or new indictment against the accused ringleader, Adam Fox, 40, of Wyoming and two of his alleged cohorts: Barry Croft Jr., 45, of Bear, Delaware; and Daniel Joseph Harris, 23, of Lake Orion.
All three are charged with plotting to blow up a bridge near Whitmer s vacation home last fall to essentially hinder the governor’s security detail and any responding law enforcement officers.
The new charges come six months after undercover informants and federal agents helped foil an alleged plot to kidnap Whitmer from her vacation home and leave her stranded in a boat in Lake Michigan. The undercover informants and agents had embedded themselves in the group, which allegedly met and schemed in the basement of a vacuum shop in the Grand Rapids area and held training exercises at various locations across the state.

A former CEO of the organization that ran the Boysville school and juvenile detention facility in Macon stole $240,000 from poor and homeless people and spent it on trips to Florida resorts, shopping sprees, Lululemon athletic wear and a new roof on his house, according to a criminal complaint unsealed Thursday in federal court.
And he was careful not to get caught, an FBI agent wrote in an affidavit, which details how John R. Lynch, 56, of Grosse Pointe Park allegedly abused his position as chief financial officer and chief executive officer for the Holy Cross organization to help himself, his family and friends.
