A Muslim convert has been found guilty of planning a terror attack described as an "atrocity". Jordan Richardson, 21, was convicted at Leeds Crown Court.
The court heard how he started planning an "atrocity", with possible targets including a shopping centre, after becoming interested in an "extremist, fundamentalist" interpretation of the religion. Richardson, who prosecutors said "regularly expressed a wish to kill Jews", was arrested on his way to work in Howden, East Yorkshire, in December last year with instructions on how to make mustard gas and a note which said: "Throw all grenades into crowd; Shoot bystanders; Stab anyone who comes close; Do not get taken alive." Leeds Crown Court jurors heard a crossbow was found at Richardson's home, and his internet history showed an "affiliation with extreme Islamist ideology, (including) material depicting and glorifying terrorist actions".
