Jury Files New Charges Against Pittsburgh Synagogue Mass Shooter
----------------------------------------------------------------

A federal grand jury has filed 19 new charges, including hate crimes,
against Robert Bowers, the accused gunman in last year's mass shooting
at Pittsburgh's Tree of Life synagogue. On October 27, 11 Jewish
worshipers were shot and killed in what has been described as the
deadliest anti-Semitic attack in U.S. history. The indictment against
Bowers cited his online attacks on the Jewish charity HIAS, including
posts from the day of the shooting.
