DENVER (AP) — A lawyer for a Colorado woman who lost custody of her son for allegedly lying about his health problems says there is no evidence she plotted with backers of the Qanon conspiracy theory to have him kidnapped from foster care.

Her lawyer told jurors at the start of the trial Monday that the prosecution's case about the alleged plot in 2019 is based on the account of her 16-year-old daughter. He stressed that she did not know when the raid would take place and did not think her mother knew where her son's foster home was.
