The Latest: Firearms expert matches 70 bullets to Roof's gun

The manager of a store that sold a handgun to the man accused of killing nine people at a South Carolina church says a typical background check was done on the buyer.

Roof had been arrested for drugs two months earlier, but Lexington County Sheriff Jay Koon told The Associated Press that a jail clerk entered incorrect information that wasn't ever fixed in a state database.

A prosecution witness has testified that a list of black churches was found in the car of the man charged with killing nine people at a South Carolina church when he was arrested last year.

Former State Law Enforcement Division agent Brittany Burke testified Monday the names of a handful of other churches and their addresses were found on a handwritten list in a backpack in Dylann Roof's car.

Attorneys for the man charged with killing nine people during a Bible study in a Charleston church are again arguing prosecutors' first witness tainted the case against their client.

Defense attorneys requested a mistrial, saying her testimony was suggestive he should get the death penalty.

In their new filing, Roof's defense team asks the judge to reconsider that decision and also to instruct further witnesses to leave their opinions on potential sentences out of their testimony.
