Print article HOWELL, Mich. - It’s a Monday morning and the Sunrise Family Diner is full. Retirees in jeans and plaid sit by the window, chatting over coffee and the local newspaper.

DETROIT (CN) A man who was part of a group that prosecutors say planned to kidnap Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer pleaded guilty Wednesday to a conspiracy charge.
Ty Garbin, 25, of Hartland Township, said he would cooperate fully with prosecutors, according to a plea agreement filed in Western Michigan federal courts. He admitted his guilt at a change of plea hearing in Grand Rapids before Chief U.S. District Judge Robert J. Jonker, a George W. Bush appointee. No agreement has been reached on final sentencing guidelines.
