Man Convicted in College Bombings
From Times Wire Reports
A federal jury convicted a white man of hate crimes and other charges for setting off two pipe bombs that terrorized predominantly black Florida A&M; University in Tallahassee. Lawrence Lombardi, 42, faces up to life in prison when he is sentenced Sept. 15. An appeal is planned. The bombings last year caused minor damage, and no one was hurt. But the second blast was followed by phone calls threatening more and left the campus gripped in fear.
