Dylann Roof, the suspect in the killings of nine black men and women at Emanuel A.M.E. Church in Charleston, South Carolina last month, was indicted by a grand jury on Wednesday on 33 federal counts, including hate crime charges and a charge of killing someone while obstructing religious freedom.

Some of those counts carry the death penalty, although U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who announced the charges, did not say whether the federal government would pursue capital punishment.
