SLED Investigates 27th Officer-Involved Shooting in South Carolina, Resulting in Suspect's Death

The South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) is currently investigating an officer-involved shooting that occurred on September 9, which began in Florence County and concluded in Williamsburg County. The incident involved 40-year-old Nelson Boyd Chavis, who was shot and subsequently died en route to the hospital. According to SLED, Florence deputies attempted to stop Chavis on Lake City Highway near Johnsonville to serve an arrest warrant. Chavis fled in his vehicle, leading deputies on a pursuit across county lines into Williamsburg. The pursuit ended when Chavis exited his vehicle and fled into a wooded area near Muddy Creek Road. An exchange of gunfire ensued between Chavis, who was armed with a handgun, and the deputies. No law enforcement officers were injured during the incident. This marks the 27th officer-involved shooting in South Carolina this year, and SLED's investigation into the matter is ongoing.

Georgia and South Carolina Combat Invasive Yellow-Legged Hornet Threatening Honeybee Colonies

Georgia and South Carolina Combat Invasive Yellow-Legged Hornet Threatening Honeybee Colonies

Georgia and South Carolina are actively working to eradicate the yellow-legged hornet, an invasive species from Asia that poses a significant threat to honeybee colonies in the southern U.S. The hornets, which first appeared in Georgia in 2023, likely arrived via a cargo ship. They are known to ambush and dismember honeybees, consuming their thoraxes to feed their young. This predatory behavior causes honeybees to become reluctant to leave their hives, leading to colony collapse. Brad Cavin, who leads South Carolina's invasive species response team for yellow-legged hornets, reported finding 16 nests in South Carolina in 2024 and destroying approximately 500 this year. In Georgia, trackers have removed about 80 nests this year. Sightings have now also been reported in North Carolina. Eradication efforts involve tracking hornets back to their nests, which can be as large as an exercise ball and are often hidden in trees or under roofs, and then injecting them with insecticide or removing them physically, so...

South Carolina Lawmakers Allocate $351 Million to Earmarks, Prompting Calls for Codified Transparency

South Carolina Lawmakers Allocate $351 Million to Earmarks, Prompting Calls for Codified Transparency

South Carolina lawmakers have passed a general appropriations act and a supplemental appropriations act, allocating an additional $351 million to various 'pet projects' or earmarks for the current fiscal year. This allocation follows a process where earmark wish lists have grown significantly later in the budget cycle. The South Carolina Policy Council's investigative arm, The Nerve, revealed that the 170-member General Assembly had proposed 175 earmarks totaling up to $467 million, with details often lacking public transparency. The House's top administrator declined a formal request for internal earmark forms, and while a compromise bill for $350 million was approved by both chambers and signed into law by Governor Henry McMaster, the process has drawn criticism for its lack of transparency and accountability.
