A federal grand jury in Salt Lake City indicted Mark Hofmann, a suspect in two fatal booby-trap bombings, on a charge of illegal possession of a machine gun. The charge was not related to the Oct. 15 bombings, which killed one of Hofmann’s business associates and the wife of a former associate, U.S. Atty. Brent Ward said. Hofmann pleaded not guilty to possessing an unregistered Uzi machine gun. He faces a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
