article: Michael Adebolajo, 29, and Michael Adebowale, 22, struck Fusilier Rigby with a car before hacking him to death. Adebolajo had claimed he was a "soldier of Allah" and the killing was an act of war. The men were found not guilty of attempting to murder a police officer at the scene. The Old Bailey jury of eight women and four men took approximately 90 minutes to reach its verdicts. They had heard that Adebolajo and Adebowale drove a car into Fusilier Rigby at 30-40mph, before dragging him into the road and attacking him with knives and attempting to decapitate him with a meat cleaver. Mr Justice Sweeney ordered that the verdicts be heard in silence. He said he would pass sentence after a key appeal court ruling on the use of whole life terms in January. He expressed his "gratitude and admiration" for the soldier's family, saying they had "sat in court with great dignity throughout what must have been the most harrowing of evidence". As the defendants were taken out of the courtroom, Adebolajo kissed his Koran and raised it in the air. Relatives of Fusilier Rigby broke down in tears as the verdicts were given. By Frank GardnerBBC security correspondent How did the police and MI5 miss the Woolwich murderers' switch from legitimate activism to violent jihad? This is one of the key questions being looked at by Parliament's intelligence and security committee, which is expected to report its findings in the new year. The short answer is prioritisation. Adebolajo made little secret of his extremist leanings and he was clearly 'an individual of interest' to both the Metropolitan Police and the security services, but he was not considered to be planning any attacks. Many will point to warning signs that suggest they should have paid closer attention to him - he was radicalised by the now-banned group Al-Muhajiroun, and in 2010 he was arrested in Kenya trying to reach Somalia to join Al-Shabaab, the group that this year attacked Nairobi's Westgate mall. But speaking ahead of the trial - and perhaps predicting some tough questions to come - MI5's director general Andrew Parker defended his organisation's record, saying: "Being on our radar does not necessarily mean being under our microscope." His wife said the family was satisfied that justice had been done, adding: "This has been the toughest time of our lives. No-one should have to go through what we have been through as a family." Rebecca Rigby said: "These people have taken away my baby's dad but Lee's memory lives on through our son and we will never forget him. "I now want to build a future for Jack and make him proud of his dad like we all are." Prime Minister David Cameron said: "The whole country was completely shocked by the murder of Lee Rigby and the whole country united in condemnation of what happened and I'm sure everyone will welcome these verdicts. "We have to redouble our efforts to confront the poisonous narrative of extremism and violence that lay behind this and make sure we
