Former police chief fights for convict’s freedom in Seagraves case
Former Hanahan Police Chief MC Bellew continues to press for Paull Mazzell’s release after twenty years. Mazzell, now 74, was convicted in the 1978 killing of Danny Seagraves and remains in poor health at Lieber Correctional Institution. Bellew, aided by several retired officers and Mazzell’s lawyers, preserves trial files and pursues state Supreme Court review amid stalled appeals and parole denials.

Spartanburg Senator Fights $25 Traffic Fee Plan
Spartanburg Senator John Hawkins led the opposition to a $25 surcharge on uniform traffic tickets aimed at speeding and drug offenses. Proponents argued the $28 million would aid law enforcement and justice agencies, but Hawkins warned the measure unfairly targets other agencies and resembles a tax. Chief Justice Jean Toal urged keeping the fees to fund the court system, while Hawkins accused House leaders of masking tax shifts as budget scores.
