TL;DR Summary
Robert Gregory Bowers, the man responsible for the 2018 Pittsburgh synagogue shooting that killed 11 people and injured seven others, has been sentenced to death by a federal judge. Bowers, driven by antisemitism, targeted the Tree of Life synagogue during Sabbath services. The sentencing comes after a jury unanimously decided on the death penalty. However, due to the Department of Justice's moratorium on capital punishment, it may be years before the execution takes place.
