Investigators Release Transcript Of Phone Call Between Attorneys, Judge In Tree Of Life Shooting Case
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - Investigators have released a transcript of a phone call between the accused Tree of Life shooter's attorneys and the judge in the case.
Back in June, lawyers were arguing over whether witnesses should be talking to alleged mass shooter Robert Bowers' defense team.
Defense attorneys were upset because some witnesses allegedly told them the FBI told witnesses not to talk to the defense attorneys.

He pleaded not guilty.
