by Scott Horton | Apr 15, 2022 | The Scott Horton Show

Download Episode. Scott talks with Jim Bovard about the recent acquittals in the Michigan Kidnapping case and FBI entrapments in general.

Bovard and Scott discuss how the FBI really kicked up these operations to target young Muslim men after 9/11.
