No Surprise, a Death Sentence for Dylann Roof

I skipped over the Dylann Roof trial. The trial's most interesting point was that against all advice, Dylann represented himself because he did not want his lawyer to use mental health issues as a defense. I applaud Roof for this. Doubtful it would have made any difference to the jury. The judge let the witnesses conduct memorial services to the victims from the witness stand and let them berate Roof for being evil and say Roof deserved to die. He killed nine people, after all. Despite all the lies of the press, our justice system is not full of kindly klansmen who would make a hero out of a white supremacist or favor him in any way. White power types routinely get 30 years for offending negroes and annoying Jews.

Bizarrely, it was revealed that Roof's concern was that if he claimed to have mental problems, this would hurt his chances to get a high position in a future Aryan government.  Sad as this is, it is not so different from the fantasies of other prisoners with draconian sentences. They do not give up hope that they are getting out, and when they do, they are going to be honored and they will exact retribution on their enemies as needed.

So, here is Dylann Roof today, according to the BOP inmate locator:

DYLANN STORM ROOF
Register Number: 28509-171
Age:   23
Race: White
Sex:    Male
NOT IN BOP CUSTODY
Release Date: DEATH SENT

Note: He is not in BOP custody because he is in the county jail in Charleston or some other non-federal detention center. It has been reported Roof will be going to Death Row in the Terre Haute FCI in Indiana.

The Citadel, the KKK, Charles Dickens, and Dylann Roof

The Death of Political Correctness...no, cancel that. Ghost costumes upset the planet. Cadets were perhaps being hazed, according to this article:

Some interesting background on the Citadel, slave revolts and so on. Ignore the plea for funding, if it pops up.

A day of fun ends in tragedy for eight cadets

Dylann Roof trial delayed until January

Updated on Dec. 14, 2015: The federal trial will be held after the state trial. The state trial is set to begin in July, as previously reported. 

Keeping up with the Dylann Storm Roof trial: Jury selection was supposed to begin but the federal trial has been pushed back to January. A state trial on the same charges will be held next July. The reason for the delayed fed trial is that Roof's attorneys want more time to prepare a defense. Makes no sense, because, honestly could there be more of a show trial than this?

Feds have not decided whether they will seek the death penalty. (Thought that was decided as "yes" a while back. But, no.) Judge told them to hurry up.

Associated Press story dated October 1, 2015 by Bruce Smith:

It has also been reported that Judge Gergel will preside over the Joseph Meek trial as well as the Roof trial.

No one mentions that part-black friend of Roof's. The kid who told the press on camera that Roof had told him a week before the church shooting that he was going to shoot up a school. Is that or is that not a crime to fail to report a plan to murder people? Nobody knows!
