Shooting suspect facing 9 murder charges housed in cell next to cop who shot Walter Scott

Charleston police said Friday morning that Dylann Storm Roof will face nine murder charges in the shooting deaths Wednesday night at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in downtown Charleston.

Spokesman Charles Francis announced the development on Twitter.

The Charleston County jail is housing Roof in a cell adjacent North Charleston police officer Michael Slager, who shot 50-year-old Walter Scott in the back on April 4, according to sheriff’s Maj. Eric Watson, spokesman.
