Seems if your father is a high ranking official you can be released from jail a couple of hours after you (allegedly) beat your girlfriend up. I bet the girlfriend felt real safe.
And then the good people at the jail refused to give a mugshot to channel 7 claiming some statute about former law officers and their privacy. WTH? They gave one up on the deputy who was arrested a month or so ago but I guess he had no connections.
Seems the county still has not learned their lesson about public records. Wonder how much this will cost us if channel 7 pursues it?

No, the SO caved in to public pressure.
Has this incident affected your trust in the system? Should he have been terminated?

As long as the story had a happy ending. ;-)
Seriously though, this is the behavior of one of our former law enforcement officers?
Your man hating ways are becoming all too apparent.

Nope - I have the same opinions about women who beat their spouses, children, pets, etc. Not a lot of sympathy for an abuser who gets the tables turned on them.

You have assumed he was an abuser, maybe she was just a murderer? Although a jury did say she was justified, but it being South Carolina and all, who really knows.

Yes, I did assume that - since after I commented that I hoped one of this guy's multiple (alleged) abuse victims would shoot him, you said "that happened to my uncle - my aunt shot him 6 times and was acquitted." :roll:

I'm betting abuser. How long ago was it?

I'm really surprised that there is no outrage over the judge coming out in the middle of the night to do this.
I don't know about most of the posters on here, but I prefer my judges fair and unbiased. Perhaps Judge Wells will come on and post his phone number for the rest of us to use in case we need a speedy first appearance?
