Recovery work starts two weeks after Matthew hits South Carolina

Roads and bridges stay shut, power largely restored, and relief groups mobilize funds and supplies for Florenece and other counties amid continuing damage assessments and FEMA aid efforts.

State workers to receive pay for Hurricane Matthew closure
Gov. Nikki Haley issued an executive order granting paid leave for state office employees in 26 counties closed Oct. 5 through Oct. 7 due to Hurricane Matthew as officials close schools and offices to ease evacuations. The order excludes school districts and local governments. Spartanburg crop damage from the storm also concerns state Agriculture Commissioner Hugh Weathers, who says losses may rival last year’s floods and are localized, complicating assessments.

Testimony questions the consistency of police statements, the role of a Tasers, and the impact of publicity on his trial location.
