Biswanath Halder Convicted; Thought He Was Victim of Computer Hack
One person was killed and two wounded in the seven-hour-long shooting spree at Case Western Reserve University, in Cleveland,OH, on May 9, 2003.
The prosecution made the argument that Halder had gone to the university's business school with more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition because he thought that a computer lab employee had hacked into his website that propagated leftist views favoring the developing countries.
Halder is said to have sat impassively as the verdicts were read by the judge to nearly 200 felony counts including murder. The jury in the trial just deliberated for over a day before turning in the verdicts.
