CNN host Brianna Keilar took a moment out of reporting on the Dylann Roof trial to play a recording of the call made to 911 from inside the church after Roof shot 9 people dead to start a race war.
According to a New York Times report, the trial has been an agonizing journey for the survivors.
After playing a recording of the 911 call made from the church that night, Brianna Keilar read the names of the victims to ensure that we don't only remember Roof, but those whom he murdered in cold blood. Here are those names:
Cynthia Hurd
Susie Jackson
Ethel Lance
Rev. DePayne Middleton-Doctor
Hon. Rev. Clementa Pinckney
Tywanza Sanders
Rev. Daniel Simmons Sr.
Rev. Sharonda Singleton
Myra Thompson
In this holiday season, my heart goes out to each of their families and the community which has been so damaged by the hateful act of one man with too many guns.
May they all have peace, and may their loved ones rest in peace.
