Out of 937 males currently in the jail, Roof's cellblock neighbor is former North Charleston Police Officer Michael Slager, who is jailed in a high-profile, racially charged murder case.
Slager, who is white, was indicted this month on charges that he killed an unarmed black man in April.
A bystander captured Slager on video shooting Walter Scott in the back after Scott ran from him during a traffic stop. The shooting led to massive protests and appeals for police reform.
