The man accused of the Squirrel Hill synagogue shooting has been transferred to Butler County Prison.
Warden Joe DeMore confirmed the move of 46-year-old Robert Bowers by U.S. Marshals took place around 1:30 p.m. Tuesday afternoon.
DeMore was informed of the move earlier on Tuesday but was not given a reason for the move. He was also not told how long Bowers would be staying in Butler.
DeMore did say that Bowers would be treated the same as any other inmate including being allowed to have visitors.
When asked for comment, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said that their policy is not to comment about the housing status of federal detainees due to security concerns.
