WINDSOR, Ont. – A man accused of killing four members of a Muslim family in London, Ont., was found guilty Thursday of four counts of first-degree murder in a case that had sparked a national conversation on combating Islamophobia.
Jurors in a Windsor, Ont., courtroom also found Nathaniel Veltman guilty of one count of attempted murder.
Veltman, 22, had pleaded not guilty to all the charges and quietly looked straight ahead as his verdict was delivered after the jury deliberated for roughly five hours.
