In an unprecedented trial seeking to tie alleged "antifa" members to domestic terrorism, a federal jury returned a mixed verdict for nine people accused in a nonfatal July 4 shooting of a police officer outside an immigration detention center — including a conviction of one count of attempted murder for shooter Benjamin Song.
Eight defendants were convicted of rioting, providing material support to terrorists, conspiracy to use and carry an explosive, and use and carry of an explosive — the explosive being fireworks.
Daniel Sanchez Estrada was convicted of corruptly concealing a document or record. He and Maricela Rueda were also convicted of conspiracy to conceal documents.
Song was also convicted on three counts of discharging a firearm.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
