PITTSBURGH — Federal prosecutors this week gave notice to Robert Bowers' legal team that they will use his antisemitic vitriol on Gab.com at his trial as well as evidence from his phone, including a video of Jared Kushner in Jerusalem, images of Bowers making white supremacist gestures and antisemitic emails he sent to family members in the weeks before the attack on the Tree of Life synagogue.
The court filing contains the most details yet publicly released regarding Bowers’ alleged motivation for the mass slaughter on Oct. 27, 2018.
Bowers is charged with storming the synagogue with an assault rifle and killing 11 worshippers in the worst attack on Jews in U.S. history.
