MIAMI (AP) - May 12, 2009 Tuesday's verdicts came after six days of deliberations in the
third trial of the "Liberty City Six." The first two trials ended
in mistrials when jurors could not agree on the men's guilt or
innocence. A seventh man was acquitted in the first trial.
The men were arrested in June 2006 on charges of plotting
terrorism with an undercover FBI informant they thought was from
al-Qaida. Defense attorneys said terrorist talk recorded on dozens
of FBI tapes was not serious and the men wanted only money.
