Without even naming the victims of Dylann Roof by name, in his very first comments on the case, speaking before a live video link with Dylann Roof himself, the judge in the case said,
"We have victims, 9 of them, but we also have victims on the other side...victims on this young man's side of the family."
What? What the hell? What is he even talking about?
We have no idea who this young man's family is, what racist teachings they may have instilled him, if they encouraged him, etc. It is far too early to be calling anyone other than the true victims of this terrorist attack victims.
This was the absolute wrong place and wrong time for this statement. See statements from the family, then the statement from the judge here.
