Convicted Murderer Out Early! SC's "Mandatory" Minimums

https://www.fitsnews.com/2022/04/07/south-carolinas-mandatory-minimums-not-so-mandatory-after-all/

It seems every time I turn around, South Carolina judges – and the politicians who appoint them – are looking for new ways to erode accountability for violent criminals (at the expense of victims and at the expense of public safety).

Just last week, in fact, I reported on a bill that inexplicably passed the S.C. House of Representatives – one that would allow violent criminals to avoid prison time in certain cases and instead receive credit for time spent on bond wearing ankle monitors.

Crazy, right? Yes … especially given the lenient bonds South Carolina judges like to dole out (and the fatal consequences which often accompany them).
