During a preliminary hearing on Sunday morning, Elliott appeared in court wearing a red shirt with the letters “HUMAN” emblazoned on the side. He spoke with no emotion, and walked slowly to sit on a court bench. His attorney did not make an appearance.
His family had declined to attend the hearing, saying they don’t believe they deserve another court appearance, said the Rev. Johnnie Moore, a spokesman for the North Charleston-based Christian Church of God.
“We pray for our family members’ families, their health, well-being, and we pray that they will continue to receive all the proper care and treatment as they have always shown,” Moore said.
A candlelight vigil was held for the victims Monday afternoon in front of the North Charleston Courthouse on Washington Avenue. A memorial is planned for Thursday at a South Carolina church, in memory of the three slain children.
The victims’ names are being withheld as the investigation continues, Moore said.
