Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Jury Files New Charges Against Pittsburgh Synagogue Mass Shooter

HeadlineJan 30, 2019

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.
