As of Wednesday afternoon a federal court has confirmed that the death sentence of Dylann Roof for his 2015 terrorist attack will be upheld!

Dylann is responsible for the murder of nine church members in 2015 at a South Carolina, Charleston at Mother Emanuel AME church.

According to WYFF News Dylann alongside his legal team attempted to appeal the death sentence in May of this year by pleading he suffers from a mental illness that caused his gruesome actions.

However official documents read that the appeal was denied while calling to attention that Dylann’s actions were intentional,” No cold record or careful parsing of statutes and precedents can capture the full horror of what Roof did. His crimes qualify him for the harshest penalty that a just society can impose.”

Reports read that Dylann was welcomed into the church die a Bible study reading of June. 17th, 2015. It has been said that he opened fire during the final prayer brutally killing The church’s pastor, State Sen. and the Rev. Clementa Pinckney, and eight parishioners.

“Dylann Roof murdered African Americans at their church, during their Bible-study and worship,” court’s decision documents read. “They had welcomed him. He slaughtered them. He did so with the express intent of terrorizing not just his immediate victims at the historically important Mother Emanuel Church, but as many similar people as would hear of the mass murder.

”He used the internet to plan his attack and, using his crimes as a catalyst, intended to foment racial division and strife across America. He wanted the widest possible publicity for his atrocities, and, to that end, he purposefully left one person alive in the church “to tell the story.”

Dylann has been named the very first person in the United States to be sentenced to death for a federal hate crime.
