A jury has found Dylann Roof guilty in last year’s massacre at a Charleston, South Carolina, church.
Roof confessed to killing nine people at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church.
In the next phase of the trial, scheduled to begin in January, jurors will weigh whether Roof should be sentenced to death or spend the rest of his life in prison. Ref. CNN.
There is no question about his guilt, that's just a formality. The question is should he put to death or get life in prison. Personally I will be surprised if they let him live because he has no remorse, no emotion he's a sociopath and will probably be a worry for the penal system.

Dylann Roof sentenced to death for killing nine parishioners at Emanuel African Methodist Emanuel Church
He was earlier convicted of killing the members of the predominantly black church in Charleston, S.C., at a church meeting in June 2015. Ref. USAToday.
I doubt anyone would be surprised with the outcome. He did not deny doing it and he showed no remorse for his actions.

Dylann Roof pleads guilty to state murder charges in church massacre, avoiding a second death sentence.
Dylann Roof, already sentenced to death by a federal court for his 2015 shooting rampage at a black church that left nine people dead, pleaded guilty to nine state murder charges Monday in a Charleston, S.C. Ref. USAToday.
Uhm, what were they going to do, cast a ninth level resurrect spell after they killed him the first time and then put him to death again? Isn't one death sentence enough any more? And just for GPs, if it isn't enough then why give him nine life sentences? If he can wiggle out of one death sentence then let's give him a second that he can't wiggle out if. This guy is evil and he deserves the afterlife he chose and he deserves it now.
