Dylann Roof execution...

Has Dylann Roof already been executed, or awaiting execution?

Given that the state of South Carolina has delayed much of its trial of Roof, and that U.S. prosecutors have succeeded in accomplishing a federal death warrant, it is more likely that Roof will be executed by the federal government, not the state government. As such, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit will likely soon consider an appeal by Roof's attorneys to avoid execution. Whether the Court of Appeals affirms or denies the warrant is irrelevant as the case will likely be considered (however briefly) by the U.S. Supreme Court (I predict that the Court will decline to involve itself in the case unless there are recognized errors by the subordinate courts). So, in other words, Roof's execution might take a few years to maybe several years to conclude.

Not yet, sorry to say.
And yes, I am a liberal who supports the death penalty - - in extreme cases.

Google will tell you if he has been executed or not and it usually takes years to execute someone. Rarely is anyone executed these days not too long after being given a death sentence.

Not yet, but within 10 years. Tim McVeigh and John Alan Muhammad were both executed within ten years of their sentancing, so I figure about the same for this creep as well.
