SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — A federal jury has convicted a 66-year-old Sacramento man for mailing more than 100 anthrax-hoax letters last year.

Marc Keyser was convicted Thursday on three counts of sending the letters and two counts of mailing threatening communications.

He was arrested in October 2008 after several newspapers, other media outlets, businesses and the Modesto district office of U.S. Rep. George Radanovich, a California Republican, received threatening packages in the mail.
