hold on, this guy was shot at the church shooting?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clementa_C._Pinckney
he was a state senator and was campaigning earlier in the day with hillary.
he was also a senior pastor at the church, but was he the regular speaker? was he a guest speaker and this is why the kid sat in the pews waiting an hour... for him to get up and speak.
was the senator the first or second one shot?
It was a small Bible study/prayer meeting after a church business meeting in a room, not the sanctuary. He allegedly asked who the pastor was and said he wanted to sit by him. It is my understanding the pastor/senator was the first one shot. The Bible study was about an hour and he waited until they were finished, then pulled out his gun and stood up and started shooting. All killed were shot multiple times.
