Anarchist Accused in Cleveland Bomb Plot Agrees to Testify Against Others 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
One of five self-described anarchists accused of seeking to blow up a
Cleveland-area bridge has pleaded guilty and agreed to testify against
the four others. The five were detained in April after allegedly
planting and detonating what they thought were active bombs. It turned
out the bombs were fakes supplied by FBI informants. On Wednesday,
Anthony Hayne agreed to a plea deal that would see him receive a maximum
sentence of 15 years in return for his testimony.
