Dylann Roof sentenced to death in Charleston hate crime case
Dylann Roof was sentenced to death for the 2015 Emanuel AME Church massacre in Charleston, the first federal hate crime case to seek and impose the death penalty. He showed no remorse, refused offers for mercy, and argued his own life sentence would serve no purpose. Prosecutors recalled the nine victims and the flag’s symbolism in the case, while supporters called for a verdict against hate.
