"Justice Served: Pittsburgh Synagogue Shooter Sentenced to Death as Families Condemn Him"

TL;DR Summary
The Pittsburgh synagogue shooter, Robert Bowers, has been formally sentenced to death after a federal jury unanimously agreed on the death penalty. The sentencing comes after victims' families delivered emotional impact statements, expressing their grief and calling Bowers "vile" and "worthless." Bowers targeted the Tree of Life synagogue in 2018, killing 11 people and injuring six others. Prosecutors argued that the shooting was motivated by Bowers' hatred towards Jews and immigrants. The sentencing represents the first federal death sentence under the Biden administration, which has imposed a moratorium on executions.
