The gunman, Robert Bowers, was convicted of 63 federal counts, including hate crimes, in June. In the sentencing, the jury had to assess the defense’s contention that Bowers had schizophrenia and “committed the offense under mental or emotional disturbance,” and therefore should be spared the death penalty. None of the 12 jurors agreed. In a statement, the family of two victims — Rose Mallinger, 97, who was killed in the attack, and Andrea Wedner, her daughter, who was wounded — thanked the jury. “Although we will never attain closure,” the statement read, “we now feel a measure of justice has been served.” ~/AAAAAQA~/RgRmrVcdP0TyaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wOC8wMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy91a3JhaW5lLXRyb29wcy1jb3VudGVyb2ZmZW5zaXZlLXRyYWluaW5nLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyMzA4MDImaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9OTkwNzUmbmw9dGhlLWV2ZW5pbmcmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTE0MDk0MiZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKZMkd0spkVYdzzlIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD Ukrainian troops in the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine last month.Finbarr O'Reilly for The New York Times U.S.-trained troops stumble in Ukraine When nine Western-trained brigades — some 36,000 troops equipped with advanced American weapons and taught American battle tactics — joined the counteroffensive this summer, they were supposed to offer the Ukrainians a much-needed advantage.

That was until his daughter, interested in his Indigenous roots, convinced him to take a DNA test. [His entire identity soon unraveled](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRmrVcdP0TnaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wOC8wMi93b3JsZC9jYW5hZGEvY2FuYWRhLW1lbi1zd2l0Y2hlZC1hdC1iaXJ0aC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU3JmVtYz1lZGl0X25lXzIwMjMwODAyJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTk5MDc1Jm5sPXRoZS1ldmVuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNDA5NDImdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmTJHdLKZFWHc85SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~). Beauvais discovered that he had been born to Ukrainian parents and mistakenly switched at birth. The other baby, the one with Métis ancestors, grew up in Manitoba celebrating Ukrainian traditions, only to discover with a DNA test of his own that he was the one with Indigenous roots.
