The sister of Charleston church shooter and white supremacist Dylann Roof was arrested on National Walkout Day after deputies say she brought weapons to her school.
On Wednesday, 18-year-old Morgan Roof was charged with simple possession of marijuana and two counts of carrying a weapon on school grounds by the Richland County Sheriff’s Department, reports WACH.
