(KSL News) "I'll have been found guilty of some of the things I didn't do." That is what Tom Zajac, the man accused of detonating a bomb in the Salt Lake City library told the Deseret Morning News.

Zajac contacted the newspaper from the Weber County Jail to proclaim his innocence. In a copyrighted story, the newspaper reports Zajac says he wasn't the person to set off the bomb. He acknowledges being in the library within 28 hours of the bombing, but says he was in the building to study the Mormon religion.

During the conversation he was critical of his lawyer, claiming "he doesn't have an attorney... just a state-appointed guy."

Zajac is charged with six different counts in conntion with the September 15th bombing at the Salt Lake City Main Library. If convicted, he faces up to 30 years in prison.

You can read more of his interview in today's edition of the Deseret Morning News.
