Wilson Reaction to Guilty Verdicts in Dylann Roof Trial

December 15, 2016

Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) issued the following statement on the guilty verdicts in Charleston Church Massacre:

"Today's verdict, while unable to bring back the remarkable souls who were lost, is a strong step towards justice for the victims, survivors, families, congregation of the historic Emanuel AME Church, and people of South Carolina. As a native of Charleston, I am particularly grateful for the community's response to this gruesome tragedy. God Bless the Emanuel Nine."
