The US Justice Department has unsealed a lengthy indictment charging five Blackwater Worldwide security guards with 14 counts of manslaughter and numerous other charges.
A sixth guard has admitted in a plea deal to killing at least one Iraqi in a deadly 2007 shooting in Baghdad.
The indictments cap a lengthy investigation into a shooting that strained diplomatic relations with Iraq and fueled anti-American sentiment abroad.
The Justice Department was planning a news conference on the indictments Monday.
