Guest editorial argues South Carolina judges face too little discipline with only three actions taken by the Judicial Conduct Commission in recent years. It cites a 2018 misconduct complaint against Judge Chasity Avinger and urges broader access to disciplinary records and higher standards, including possible waivers for candidates and a reexamination of court priorities to protect public confidence.
The South Carolina Agency Head Salary Commission has raised five top officials salaries by 19 to 48 percent, including Nanette Edwards from 178,619 to 265,000. The raises, part of a 1980s reform shift to merit based bands, fuel criticism over pay scales and future hires for state leaders and elected officials under H.3786.
