TL;DR Summary

The case against Robert Bowers, who killed 11 people at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh in 2018, has gone to the jury. The prosecution argued that Bowers' "hatred of Jews runs deep" and that he killed the victims because they were Jewish. The defense admitted that Bowers committed the attack but claimed that he was driven by his hatred of immigrants, not religion. The jury will consider 63 counts against Bowers, including interfering with the victims' faith.
