BC Terrorism Suspect 'Panicked' In Hours Before Attack

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 17 Mar, 2015 03:37 PM
    VANCOUVER — A jury has watched video that shows a woman accused of planning an attack at B.C.'s legislature telling her husband she was panicking in the hours before the plot was set to unfold.
     
    John Nuttall and Amanda Korody were captured on video at a hotel on Vancouver Island in the early morning of July 1, 2013 — the day the Crown alleges they planned to detonate pressure-cooker bombs.
     
    In the video, Korody tells Nuttall she needs help because she's feeling stressed out and panicked and that her heart is racing.
     
    Nuttall says he and Korody, who were recent converts to Islam, have nothing to worry about and that Allah will protect them.
     
    He tells her all she has to do is carry a bag containing a pressure cooker to a bush at the legislature and he promises to help her if she has trouble.
     
    The video also shows Nuttall and Korody, who were recovering heroin addicts, drinking methadone to avoid being "dope sick" during the attack.
