Dylann Roof stopped by another church after Charleston shooting
Charleston church shooter Dylann Roof stopped by another black church the night of his Bible study massacre in 2015, court papers show.
Newly unsealed documents in Roof’s federal case cite GPS data that was not presented in his trial. The records show that after Roof gunned down nine parishioners at the Emanuel AME Church June 17, he stopped at another house of worship — the Branch AME Church — and shut off his GPS device for several minutes. Like Emanuel, the Branch church was holding its weekly Bible study that night.
There is no indication that Roof entered the church, and it’s unclear if anyone was still there when he arrived.
Other court documents say Roof admitted to a coworker that he was racist, and also regularly talked about Adolf Hitler and said he made sure to keep only 88 Facebook friends, referencing a number used as Nazi code for “Heil Hitler.”
