CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) – The Latest on the federal death-penalty trial of a white man charged with killing nine black people during a Bible study in a Charleston church (all times local):
1:10 p.m.
Dylann Roof’s lawyers say his mother suffered a heart attack after listening to opening statements in her son’s death penalty trial.
Roof’s mother collapsed as she tried to stand after prosecutor Jay Richardson detailed what he said was Roof’s cold and calculated plan to kill nine black people in a Charleston church in a racially motivated attack.
She said “I’m sorry” several times as family members and court security came to help. The filing did not give her current condition.
