Bowers clearly formed the intent to kill everyone he could find in Pittsburgh's Tree of Life synagogue on Oct. 27, 2018, Rivetti said. He called the magnitude of Bowers' crimes staggering, The sentencing portion of Bowers' trial comes as the death penalty has become a more prominent topic in the 2024 presidential race. The federal death penalty wasn't a high-profile issue until former President Donald Trump's administration resumed executions in 2020 after a 17-year hiatus.
