AKRON, Ohio -- Convicted bridge bomb plot conspirator Joshua Stafford will be sentenced Monday afternoon.

A jury found Stafford guilty on three counts in June:

1. Conspiracy with four others to procure weapons of mass destruction
2. Knowingly using weapons of mass destruction, specifically IED's composed of C-4
3. Maliciously attempting to destroy the Brecksville Northfield high-level bridge.

Sentencing is scheduled for 1 p.m. in Akron.

Stafford, 24, of Cleveland, along with four other men, were arrested in what the FBI says was a failed plot to bring down the Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge on State Route 82 over the Cuyahoga Valley National Park between Brecksville and Sagamore Hills.

The other men are Anthony Hayne, 35, of Cleveland; Brandon L. Baxter, 20, of Lakewood; Connor Stevens, 20, of Berea; and Douglas L. Wright, 26; of Indianapolis. The FBI says the five are all self-proclaimed anarchists.

The five were under close police surveillance. The FBI says the group purchased two inoperable improvised explosive devices (IEDs) from an undercover agent. The FBI stressed the devices were inert.

To date, the other four defendants have landed prison terms of six to 11 years. All were charged with use of weapons of mass destruction and conspiracy.

Stafford chose to represent himself during his trial.
