Townsend Trial Reset For July At Aiken County Court
The Aiken County Summary Court has reset for July 31 a simple assault trial of Carlos L. Townsend a suspended USC Aiken judicial affairs officer. Townsend’s case ended in a mistrial after a state witness statement the judge allowed could have contaminated the jury. He is accused of inappropriately touching a 20 year old college student in June last year. SLED agent Ralph Creswell testified that Judge Gail Shaw issued the probable cause warrant leading to Townsend’s arrest. Defense attorney James Whittle moving for mistrial argued the testimony could unduly influence the jury.
