Former CIA agent Edwin Wilson was found guilty Saturday on four counts of conspiring to smuggle 20 tons of explosives to Libya in 1977. Wilson, already sentenced last December to 15 years in prison and fined $200, 000 for smuggling guns to Libyan agents in 1979, could be sentenced to 17 years in prison and fined $145,000 on this conviction. He faces two more trials in Washington, D.C., in connection with his activities in Libya.
