A member of the Army’s 101st Airborne Division was convicted yesterday of premeditated murder and attempted murder in a grenade and rifle attack that left two other soldiers dead and 14 wounded in Kuwait during the opening days of the invasion of Iraq. Sergeant Hasan Akbar now faces a possible death sentence, which the same 15-member military jury will consider at a hearing that begins Monday.
