Robert Bowers killed 11 people at a Pittsburgh synagogue and he's facing a possible death sentence at his ongoing trial. Patrick Crusius killed 23 people at a Texas Walmart, but the Justice Department took the death penalty off the table and he received a life sentence. Both were motivated by racial hate. Both later claimed mental illness. Why didn't they face the same consequences from the Justice Department?

Police say a gunman on a rooftop opened fire on an Independence Day parade in suburban Chicago, killing at least six people, wounding at least 30 and sending hundreds of marchers, parents with strollers and children on bicycles fleeing in terror. Authorities said 21-year-old Robert E. Crimo III was named as a person of interest in the shooting and was taken into police custody Monday evening after an hourslong manhunt.
