Survivors recount terror and loss in Pittsburgh synagogue shooting trial.

TL;DR Summary
Survivor Andrea Wedner testified in court about the Pittsburgh synagogue massacre, where she saw her mother killed and her own arm "blown open in two places" by gunman Robert Bowers. Wedner was the government's last witness as prosecutors wrapped up their case against Bowers, who killed 11 worshippers and injured seven others in the 2018 attack. The defense has acknowledged that Bowers was the gunman, but suggests he acted not out of religious hatred but rather a delusional belief that Jews were enabling genocide by helping immigrants settle in the United States.
