The gunman who massacred 11 people at the Tree of Life synagogue in 2018 was sentenced Wednesday to death, a federal court decision that came nearly five years after the highest-casualty antisemitic attack in the nation’s history.

A 12-person federal jury reached its unanimous decision for Robert G. Bowers, 50, of Baldwin, Pa., after a tw0-month trial in which anguished survivors described the mass shooting that took place during morning Shabbat prayer services on Oct. 27, 2018, in terrifying detail…

“The evidence in this trial proved that the defendant acted because of white-supremacist, antisemitic, bigoted views that unfortunately are not original or unique to him. Sadly, they are too common,” U.S. Attorney Eric Olshan of the Western District of Pennsylvania said at a news conference after the decision.
