Today, we witnessed an extraordinary moment in a charleston courtroom. In South Carolina, victims are allowed to speak in bail hearings, and as dylann roof made his first appearance by teleconference from jail families of the nine people gunned down during bible study told him about the precious lives that were wrenched away. Deeply religious families gathered their courage and surprised nearly everyone. Ethel lance, 70 years old, left five children, seven grandchildren, and four great grandchildren. A daughter spoke for the family. Pelley 49yearold reverend Depayne Middleton doctor was a mother of four. A sister spoke for the family. Pelley 26yearold Tywanza Sanders reportedly tried to shield others from the gunman. His mother addressed his accused killer. Pelley 21yearold dylann roof could hear the families but he could not see them. Bond was set at 1 million on one of the charges. Justice correspondent jeff pegues has more from that hearing. Jeff. Reporter scott, dylann roof is being held in a jail cell in a building behind this barbed wire fence. Were told that hes in solitary confinement and under suicide watch. What is your age . 21. Reporter dylann roof stood emotionless as he heard the charges against him nine counts of murder for the three men and six women investigators say he gunned down wednesday night. Charleston is a very strong community. We have big hearts. Reporter from the bench, chief magistrate James Gosnell expressed sympathy and support for both the victims of the shooting and roofs family. We must find it in our heart at some point in time not only to help those that are victims but to also help his family as well. Reporter new details emerged today about wednesdays horrific rampage. According to a warrant for his arrest, roof, seen here on surveillance video, entered emanuel a. M. E. Church around 8 06 p. M. Wearing a fanny pack. After attending a bible study class for an hour, the Court Documents say he stood up and pulled out a hand gun and began shooting. All nine victims were shot multiple times. The warrant says that before roof left, he stood over a witness and uttered a racially inflammatory statement. Cbs news has learned roof told a witness that he had spared her life so she could tell others what happened. In addition to her, a woman and a fiveyearold boy also survived by playing dead. Joseph riley is the mayor of charleston, South Carolina. I knew many of these people. I admired them and loved them, and worked with them. And so its its hardest thing ive done in this job and probably the hardest thing ill do in my life. Reporter roof evaded capture for more than 12 hours. According to the warrant, roofs father and uncle recognized him from the surveillance image released to the public and contacted the Charleston Police department. Roofs father also told police his son owned a. 45caliber hand gun. When roof was apprehended in shelby, North Carolina yesterday, Law Enforcement sources say a glock 41, a 45 caliber hand gun, was found in his car. He was arrested and taken to the Shelby Police station. Why did you do it . Reporter Law Enforcement sources say during an interrogation, roof revealed that he had been planning the attack for some time and that he chose the church because it was an historic African American church. Sources say he also revealed that while he was sitting in the bible study, he considered abandoning his plan, but then changed his mind. Because, a source says, he thought if he didnt do it, no one else would. If convicted, roof could get the death penalty. And, scott, we learned today the department of justice is investigating this case as both a hate crime and an act of domestic terrorism. Pelley jeff pegues on the investigation for us tonight. Jeff, thank you very much. This evening, the sorrows and the hopes of charleston are filling a 5,000seat arena in the citys official vigil. This is a live picture now inside the arena, the t. D. Arena where the college of charleston plays basketball. Amid all the prayers for harmony, attention is focusing again on a symbol of division in the state capitol, columbia. And heres elaine quijano. Reporter today, the flags of the United States and South Carolina flew at halfstaff over the state capitol, but the Confederate Flag remained at full height. Its against state law to touch it. Governor nikki haley was asked about permanently removing the flag on cbs this morning. There will be policy discussions, and youll hear me come out and talk about it. But right now, i am not doing that to the people of my state. Reporter in charleston, some think the time for that conversation is now. N. A. A. C. P National President cornell brooks asked for meaningful dialogue about the scourge of racism. We say this not because were trying to sow division, but rather because were trying to sow unity, a unity of purpose, a unity of commitment, a unity of resolve so that we confront the racism in our midst. And that means, certainly symbolically, we cannot have the Confederate Flag waving in the state capitol. applause reporter those who want to keep the flag say it is not a racist symbol but rather a piece of their heritage. Opinion falls largely along racial lines. 73 of whites feel the Confederate Flag should stay. 61 of African Americans say it should not be flown on the state house grounds. Reverend joseph darby was born and raised in South Carolina. Im over 60 years old. I remember when the klan marched behind that flag. I have seen those rallies. It was put up at the height of the civil rights movement, and it was done so across the south, the implication was clear. Reporter what do you see when you see the Confederate Flag flying . Rape, torture, terrorism, murder, subjugation. Reporter president obama has said he thinks the Confederate Flag belongs in a museum. Scott, the accused gunman was driving a car with a Confederate Flag license plate. Pelley and the mayor of columbia said today the flag is bound to go. Thank you very much, elaine. Its worth noting that today is the 150th anniversary of juneteenth, the day the last remaining slaves in texas were emancipated. And it was 51 years ago today that the Senate Passed the civil rights act, which outlaws discrimination based on race color, religion, sex, or national origin. This evening, president obama said it is not enough to grieve after tragedies. The u. S. Needs to have a conversation about gun safety, and in his words, fix this. Major garrett reports that debate is under way. Reporter South Carolina law allows concealed firearms inside churches if the pastor approves. Pastor and state senator Clementa Pinckney opposed that law. A day after pinckney and eight others were shot and killed, lobbying group gun owners of america noted, potential victims were disarmed by law. Erich pratt speaks for the group. The problem is, is that people arent allowed to take their firearms into certain places. Thats where these Mass Shootings are occurring. Reporter today at the u. S. Conference of mayors, president obama rejected that theory. And so i refuse to act as if this is the new normal or to pretend that its simply sufficient to grieve and that any mention of us doing something to stop it is somehow politicizing the problem. Reporter after the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in 2012, congress voted down president obamas push for background checks on most firearm sales and smaller ammunition magazines. But states have acted, moving gun laws in both directions. In the two years after sandy hook, mostly democraticleaning states have passed 99 laws restricting access to firearms. While mostly republicanleaning states have enacted 88 laws expanding access. Democratic senator ben cardin represents maryland, which tightened gun laws after newtown. Anything we try to do in congress is going to be a heavy lift. It shouldnt be, but it is. Thats the Political Landscape that were dealing with in congress. So we understand the realities. Reporter polls show the country evenly split on the question of stricter gun control laws, and even though one survey last summer showed that 92 of households with firearms supported a more expansive use of background checks, scott. The white house concedes the moment for tougher federal gun control laws came right after sandy hook and has long since passed. Pelley Major Garrett at the white house for us tonight. Major, thank you. In another mass murder case, the prosecution rested today in the trial of james holmes, accused of killing 12 and injuring 70 in a colorado movie theater. 79 witnesses were called but none more powerful than the last today. Heres Barry Petersen. Reporter in a crime that took so much from so many, it may have taken the most from ashley moser. The life of her sixyearold daughter, veronica, the loss of an unborn child, and she was left a quadriplegic with a bullet still lodged in her spine. At first, she thought the gunfire was a prank. I went to stand up to reach for her hand to try to exit. When you say her hand you mean veronica . Veronicas hand, yeah. Okay, did her hand reach back . No. I couldnt feel it. Like, it just slipped through my hand. Reporter she told of being hit in the chest and falling on veronica. Could you feel her moving . No. Could you feel her breathing . No. Could you get off of her . No. Reporter holmes sat across the courtroom not moving, never looking at her. The prosecution was allowed to show a picture of veronica taken only weeks earlier. How soon before her death was that taken . Not long because it was her kindergarten graduation. Reporter and with that, the eightweek prosecution case was over. Your honor, the people of the state of colorado rest. Reporter the defense now tries to prove holmes not guilty by reason of insanity. That starts next week. As for the impact of mosers story, scott, the jury was rapt. Some took notes, and like others in the courtroom, some wept. Pelley Barry Petersen at the courthouse tonight. Barry, thank you.

At the end of a tough week and with fathers day coming up on sunday, it seemed like a good time to share it again. So heres steve on the road at the intersection of yesterday and tomorrow. Reporter long before i went on the road, there was one road, malcolm road, in toledo, ohio. There was one house, number 1053, and one man, my number one. You recognize any of these . Sure do.
