PITTSBURGH—A federal grand jury on Oct. 31 charged the man accused of killing 11 worshipers in a Pittsburgh synagogue with additional hate crimes and firearms offenses, as the Jewish community held more funerals for victims of the worst anti-Semitic attack in U.S. history.
The 44-count grand jury indictment expands on the charges initially brought against avowed anti-Semite Robert Bowers, 46, after the massacre on Oct. 27 at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill district.
