Four Men Found Guilty in Plot to Bomb Bronx Synagogues

Four men accused of planting bombs outside synagogues in the
Bronx and plotting to fire missiles at military planes were
convicted on Monday, in a case that was widely seen as an
important test of the entrapment defense.

A jury of six women and five men in Federal District Court in
Manhattan deliberated for eight days.

The four defendants - Onta Williams, Laguerre Payen, James
Cromitie and David Williams IV - face up to life in prison.
Prosecutors said the men, who all lived in Newburgh, N.Y.,
willingly cooperated with an informer working for the Federal
Bureau of Investigation who posed as a terrorist and supplied
the men with inert bombs and Stinger missile tubes.
