(Pittsburgh, Pa.) Prosecutors want to begin jury selection in September for the trial of Robert Bowers, the accused gunman in the 2018 shooting at Tree of Life Synagogue in Squirrel Hill. They would also like the trial to begin in October.
A lawyer defending Bowers says they won’t be ready for trial until late next year because of the the delay on the push for the death penalty, a large amount of evidence, and the pandemic.
