Muhammad Is Guilty in 6 Sniper Slayings

Share via
From Times Wire Reports

John Allen Muhammad was convicted in Rockville of six sniper killings after the prosecution’s star witness, Muhammad’s young protege, portrayed him as the mastermind of an audacious terrorist scheme.

Muhammad, 45, is already under a death sentence in Virginia for a killing there. The most he can get for the six murders committed in Maryland is life in prison without parole.

The jury took slightly more than four hours to convict him after a four-week trial in which he acted as his own lawyer.
