Roof was later arrested and sought the death penalty as his final verdict.

That's an odd but intriguing sentence construction, all puns aside. The judge usually announces the verdict, guilty or not guilty. To speak of a final verdict does suggest the perpetrator had come up with some preliminary death verdicts which as it happens he passed on his victims, with the end game being to pass the same death sentence on himself. Of most significance in crime cases is the motive, in this case hatred.
