He will remain in jail until the trial next year
Dylann Roof, who was charged with murdering nine people in a historically black church in Charleston, S.C. in June, will go on trial in July of 2016.
Roof had his second court appearance Thursday morning, where his trial was set for July 11, 2016, ABC reports. Roof’s defense attorney says he is competent to stand trial and is not seeking bond, meaning that Roof, 21, will remain in jail until then.
