Verdict imminent in Pittsburgh synagogue shooting trial.

TL;DR Summary
The federal trial of Robert Bowers, the man charged with carrying out the deadliest antisemitic attack in the US history, has concluded its first phase. The jury will now deliberate whether Bowers is guilty of the 63 federal charges, including 11 counts of killing people because of their religion. If found guilty, the jury will then decide whether he should be sentenced to death. The prosecution argued that Bowers acted out of a "cold and calculating" hatred for Jews, while the defense argued that his motivation may not satisfy the elements of some of the charges. The trial is expected to last for about six weeks.
