    Default Colleton Sheriff and election

    Got no dog in this hunt but have seen where the Colleton Cnty Sheriff has told his staff that IF they support anyone else they will be fired . I can understand wanting your staff to support you however that seems more like a damn mafia move, support me or ELSE

    Now he is denying to reveal what his $1500 room tab was for, said is was “none of the auditor’s business “.


    Is this just the media or is this guy a lose cannon.

    He is a S.C. sheriff Bo. God gotta ask permission to step foot in his county.

    I don’t live there but I understand he brought the law back to a lawless situation in Colleton County. It was so bad under the previous sheriff that the feds had to come in to round up some real bad actors. And as for the email to his subordinates, I’d bet there’s more to the story, for example, he had employees actively subverting his authority in efforts to prop up an opponent. If so, I wouldn’t put up with that shit either.

    So the CCSD told these folks that their guns were recovered and then later changed their story?

    So he lied to his folks about his beliefs to get elected, then flipped?

    Good man.

    I think folks who live there would tell you the ends justified the means in this case. Based on what was going on there during that time. It was bad. Real bad.

    I see he let some pigeon hunters shoot down some SHARK drones. I like him for that.

    Otherwise, I got nothing either way.

    Exactly, Malone was as bad as it gets. Whether you like him or not, he has made a difference.

    Not only that, told a neighboring County Sheriff's Department they had to keep them in possession for trial. They now claim no one knows where they are

    I would be beyond pissed if that were me. They need to find a contact at the solicitor’s office and work from there. Keep a spotlight on it and I bet those guns magically get found.

    That part I have an understanding with as well as wanting your subordinates to support you however when you manipulate system to where you feel you do not have to answer for how you spend taxpayer funds that is crossing the line . In MB of all places, in fact this should(and may be ) listed in FOIA information


    Other thing that struck me was his wife stopped for DUI by SC Hwy Patrol, now he has instructed his officers not to provide support/backup unless it is a life or death situation

    Oh well guess it is up to the voters of that county but seems to be a lot of Ethics Violations piling up

    Back in the news for punching a female family member in the face. This guy sounds like a real winner.
