Police tape lines a sidewalk in front of the Tree of Life synagogue where a vigil was held on Saturday morning to mark one week after the deadly shooting, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, U.S., November 3, 2018. REUTERS/Alan Freed/File PhotoAug 3 (Reuters) - A federal judge was due to formally sentence Robert Bowers to death on Thursday for killing 11 worshippers at Pittsburgh's Tree of Life synagogue in 2018, the deadliest antisemitic attack in U.S. history, the New York Times reported. The sentencing hearing comes a day after a jury unanimously voted for the death penalty after finding Bowers guilty on 63 counts, including 11 counts of obstruction of free exercise of religious beliefs resulting in death. Relatives of Bowers' victims are expected to address Judge Robert Colville during the hearing at the U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh in western Pennsylvania. Bowers will join the 41 other men on federal death row, held in cells near the U.S. government's execution chamber in Terre Haute, Indiana.

Jurors will need to be unanimous to impose the death penalty or else the gunman will receive life without the possibility of parole. The panel will now deliver its verdict to U.S. District Court Judge Robert Colville, who is bound to impose their decision against the gunman. Last month, this same jury found the shooter guilty on 63 criminal counts stemming from the attack in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh on October 27, 2018. Armed with an AR-15 and other weapons, the shooter barged into the synagogue and opened fire. Law enforcement, five of whom were injured in the shooting, returned fire and hit the gunman, who then surrendered.

Sentencing Commission approved new guidelines on Wednesday that will expand federal inmates' ability to qualify for compassionate release from prison. The First Step Act, signed into law by former President Donald Trump in 2018, expanded compassionate release criteria for sick and elderly federal inmates. Requests for compassionate release then surged during the COVID-19 pandemic, with 7,014 motions filed in fiscal year 2020. The new compassionate release guidelines approved on Wednesday expanded the criteria for what can qualify as "extraordinary and compelling reasons" to grant compassionate release, and it will give judges more discretion to determine when a sentence reduction is warranted. Among the new categories that could make an inmate eligible for compassionate release is if he or she becomes the victim of sexual assault by a corrections officer.

Lisa Montgomery, condamnată în 2007 la închisoare pe viaţă pentru crimă, este prima femeie din ultimii 70 de ani care a fost executată în Statele Unite ale Americii. Ea a primit o injecție letală în penitenciarul din Terre Haute, statul Indiana. Decizia salutată de avocaţi a fost anulată apoi de o instanţă superioară. Lisa Montgomery, acum în vârstă de 52 de ani, a strangulat o femeie însărcinată, apoi i-a tăiat burta şi i-a luat copilul. Ultima femeie executată în SUA a fost Bonnie Heady, în anul 1953.

☆ În SUA a avut loc prima execuție a unei femei în ultimii 70 de ani; Condamnata primise o amânare cu doar câteva ore înainte

Lui Montgomery i-a fost făcută injecția letală la închisoarea în care era încarcerată în Terre Haute, în statul Indiana. Lisa Montgomery a strangulat o femeie însărcinată, i-a tăiat pântecul și apoi i-a răpit fătul. Cazul a atras atenția publicului și o mulțime de controverse pentru că avocații femeii au argumentat că ea era bolnavă psihic și că a suferit abuzuri serioase în copilărie. Argumentul lor final a fost că femeia nu poate fi executată pentru că a fost născută cu leziuni cerebrale și este bolnavă psihic. Execuția a fost amânată de două ori anterior – prima oară din cauza pandemiei de coronavirus, iar a doua oară de un judecător.
