* Jury unanimously finds man guilty of all three charges against him

A New York white supremacist was convicted by a federal jury on Friday of plotting to use a remote-controlled radiation device.. to harm Muslims and President Barack Obama.

After less than three hours of deliberation in US district court in Albany, New York, the jury unanimously found Glendon Scott Crawford guilty of all three charges against him.

His "death ray" device was apparently constructed from an industrial X-ray machine and electronic beam welders. Crawford worked as an industrial mechanic at General Electric.

"Crawford initially plotted to use a drone to turn people 'into oil' through the radiation before settling on operating the mobile X-ray device out of a van marked 'Halal meat,' the informant said.

Crawford went to North Carolina to discuss funding his project with Chris Barker, KKK imperial wizard of the Loyal White Knights, who turned out to be cooperating with the FBI.
