Pan Am 103
A portion of the nose section of Pan American Flight 103 is pictured after it was brought down by a bomb on December 21, 1988 in the village of Lockerbie, Scotland. 270 people lost their lives that day including many college students who were returning home from a field trip. A Libyan intelligence agent was convicted of planting a bomb on board the giant Boeing 747-121. Despite being sentenced to 27 years in prison, the criminal was granted early release recently on compassionate grounds. He reportedly is suffering from a terminal illness.
(Note: Due to the nature of this crime, I have chosen NOT to publish the perpetrator's name in this writing.)
