Judge allows victim’s family members to address church shooter in Court
South Carolina church shooter Dylann Roof attended his bond hearing via video hookup from the jail behind the courthouse and a judge allowed distraught family members of his victims to speak to him.
“It’s important to hear from the victims and let them speak out,” said the Judge Gosnell. Some family members declined to speak but the daughter of Esther Lance (pictured inset), spoke
“I just want everybody to know… to you… I forgive you. You took something very precious away from me. I will never talk to her ever again. I will never be able to hold her again. But I forgive you… and have mercy on your soul. You hurt me, you hurt a lot of people, but I forgive you.” she said as Roof showed no emotion.
