Man Pleads Guilty To Uploading Rigby Videos
Royal Barnes, 23, of Hackney, east London, has pleaded guilty to posting three videos on YouTube glorifying the murder of Fusilier Lee Rigby in Woolwich, south-east London last May.
In one video he praised the murder as "a brilliant day", and mocked the public grief over Fusilier Rigby's death in another. In a third he was seen laughing as he drove past floral tributes for Rigby.
Barnes' wife Rebekah Dawson, 22, who also uploaded videos online had admitted disseminating terrorist publication at a previous hearing and is awaiting sentence.
Barnes also posted on Facebook the offer of a reward for avenging the rape of an Iraqi woman and asking for "Any1 who kills an invading soldier in Muslim land I will give them a Vauxhall Astra 3door and money (French British American any kaffir soldier take ur pick)".
The post was not answered by any of his 500 friends.
He pleaded guilty to three counts of disseminating a terrorist publication and one of inciting murder.
