AP – FILE - An undated file photo provided by the U.S. District Attorney's office shows Ahmed Khalfan Ghailani. …
Guantanamo detainee faced with hundreds of charges in a civilian court room, was acquitted of all but one of the charges.
A federal jury convicted Ahmed Ghailani of one count of conspiracy to destroy U.S. property and acquitted him on more than 280 other counts, including one murder count for each of the 224 people killed in the embassy bombings. The anonymous jurors deliberated over seven days.
Ghailani, 36, rubbed his face, smiled and hugged his lawyers after the jurors filed out of the courtroom.
