Barry George (41) had denied killing the popular 37-year-old TV personality, whose brutal murder in April 1999 caused shock and set off one of Britain's biggest manhunts.
Ms Dando was the high-profile co-presenter of BBC's Crimewatch UK programme.
The jury today returned a 10-1 majority verdict after one of the jurors was excused for personal reasons and the judge allowed a majority rather than a unanimous one.
