Eight? I thought it was nine:

Myra Thompson, 59
Ethel Lance, 70
Susie Jackson, 87
Reverend DePayne Middleton Doctor, 49

One victim did not die at the scene. 8 died at the church, one died at the hospital.

Sanders says Susie Jackson had already called 911 when Tywanza tried to get over to her.

An 87 year shot 11 times with .45cal rounds is still able to call 911? Hmmmm.... This is why I have suspicions of this person's testimony.

Do we know exactly when she called 911? She could have called as soon as the first shot happened, or when she saw the gun, or any moment before being shot -- or depending on where her wounds were, she could have lived a short time and was still able to call. Many 87 year olds are not senile or unable to act in an emergency. I did not find this at all suspicious.

BODY CAM: Kniess can be heard counting the bodies. Says there are 8 bodies total. #chsnews #RoofTrial


Eight? I thought it was nine:

Clementa Pinckney, 41
Cynthia Hurd, 54
Tywanza Sanders, 26
Myra Thompson, 59
Ethel Lance, 70
Susie Jackson, 87
Reverend DePayne Middleton Doctor, 49
Reverend Sharonda Singleton, 45
Reverend Daniel Simmons Sr., 74

One died later that evening at the hospital.

Oh yeah, and one other thing...
the prosecutor did, in fact, ask Felicia Sanders to describe the man who joined their bible study that night, and she pointed directly at Roof and said "he looked exactly like the defendant sitting right over there".

Williams brings up photos of the notes in the back seat for Burke to see. She identifies them.

"Dear Mom, I love you. I'm sorry for what I did but I had to do it... I know that what I did will have repercussions on my whole family and I'm sorry... I love you, Dylann."

"Dear Dad, I love you and I'm sorry. You were a good dad. I love you."

The note to his mother says he wishes he was in her arms now
