Accused synagogue shooter Robert Bowers wants his trial moved somewhere else.
In a long-expected move, his lawyers on Monday asked a judge for a change of venue, saying pre-trial publicity makes a fair trial in the Western District of Pennsylvania impossible.
Media coverage in the Pittsburgh region has created a "presumption of guilt," the lawyers said, with a majority of potential jurors holding the opinion that Mr. Bowers is guilty and should die for what he is accused of doing.
