Dylann Roof is mentally competent to represent himself at the sentencing phase of his trial, a federal judge ruled Monday.
Roof could be sentenced to death for killing nine people inside an African-American church in Charleston, S.C.
He was evaluated over the weekend by Dr. James Ballinger, a specialist in forensic psychiatry, according to CNN. The results of the evaluation were read in court Monday, but U.S. District Judge Richard Gergel did not allow the public to hear the proceeding, citing Roof’s right to a fair trial.
Roof was convicted in December of shooting and killing nine black parishioners during a Bible study at the historic Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in June 2015. Roof, now 22, was convicted on 33 federal charges, including nine counts of a hate crime resulting in death, for which he faces the death penalty.
Roof entered the church armed and “with the intent of killing African-Americans engaged in the exercise of their religious beliefs,” according to the federal indictment against him. Roof told Gergel last week that he has “no plans whatsoever to call witnesses” during the sentencing phase, which is scheduled to start this week.
