Church gunman insists to jury he is not mentally ill Updated at

Dylann Roof spoke Wednesday for the first time to the jurors who will decide whether he should be executed for fatally shooting nine black parishioners during a Bible study, insisting that he is not mentally ill and foregoing a chance to plead for his life. The soft-spoken 22-year-old white man told the jury that he was not trying to keep any secrets from them.
