    I can't explain much of anything that has happened in Hampton County. What I do know is that multiple partners testified that the clients were firm clients and that all funds went through the firm. While there may not be any criminal issues, there certainly are issues with the violation of the...

    This. It is amazing that the firm has only had to repay the victims but no further action has been taken. There is no way that the partners or CFO were unaware

    Burden is the same for guilt phase. but jury sentences to death . If not unanimous for death then it is automatically lwop.

    Death penalty is a two phase trial. They would have to determine guilt vs innocence then present evidence about the crime, his ability to serve time, mental state rehabilitation and other factors. There is a higher burden and it would have been difficult to meet the threshold for death in this...

    Not a lot of white collar prisons in the state system. financial crimes would like be concurrent and earlier parole because they are non-violent.

    Surprisingly not a ton of work at the circuit level for a clerk. Most rely or request research from counsel and require submitted orders. Don’t know any circuit judges that write their own orders anymore. Too much volume.

    Typical office is a administrative assistant and law clerk. Admin stays in their home office and the law clerk typically travels the circuit with the Judge and is in the courtroom etc. Not a ton of research at the circuit level from the clerk or staff.

    It was not confirmed until today and most thought that he wouldn't testify. Creighton has been living this for years and Meadors has been living it for months. Pretty sure both of them could get out of bed and effectively cross Alex

    No. SC only allows venue change within the circuit. No way the state wanted to go to Hampton and Barnwell likely not much better. More population to chose from and defense likely had no basis to get it in Hampton

    John Meadors will likely take a good bit of the testimony. He had tried a ton of murder cases and I believe some capital cases. He is damn good

    Part of the schtick. He is going to have to be an *** at some point in the trial and wants the perception that was presented today

    He is a good attorney and has the perry mason vibe. Dick will have the showmanship and “gotcha” moment, if one is to be found. Jim Griffin is a Lawyer and one of the best in the country. He flies under the radar but I have a feeling he will work the experts pretty hard. He has a great reputation...

    the bank Board is made up entirely of family members. Either siblings, cousins or in-laws. Will be interesting to see how many people withdraw their funds from the community bank.
