Jury convicts couple of plotting terrorist attack at B.C. legislature; entrapment argument still to be heard | 02 June 2015 | John Nuttall and Amanda Korody have been found guilty of plotting to detonate pressure-cooker bombs outside the B.C. legislature on Canada Day in a case that raised questions about police tactics amid increasing fears of homegrown terrorism. And the case is not yet complete — the parties will soon return to court to consider if the accused were entrapped by police. A jury returned to a Vancouver courtroom on Tuesday after three days of deliberations and found the couple guilty of conspiring to murder persons unknown and making or possessing an explosive substance – in both cases for the benefit or at the direction of a terrorist group. The judge said she would wait to enter the verdicts until she hears the entrapment argument — which cannot be heard by a jury.
