Governor Nikki Haley Responds to Charleston Church Shooting:  In this video by CNN, Gov. Haley got emotional discussing the shooting at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church that left nine people dead.  She says, “The heart of South Carolina was broken.  Parents have to explain to their children how they can go to church and feel safe.  And that’s not something that we thought we would have to deal with.  You’re going to see all of us lift these nine families up in prayer because they need us.”  Video Source:  Charleston Church Shooting — CNN Video

According to USA Today, a manifesto believed to be written by accused killer Dylann Roof could explain why Charleston, South Carolina was targeted in the church shootings and what motivated the deadly attack.  WCNC News Charlotte reported that Dylann Roof is being held in a Charleston County Jail cell next to the former North Charleston police officer (Michael Slager) who fatally shot a black man (Walter Scott) as he was running away from him.
