Justices question prosecutor’s conduct in trial of Clemson student’s killer

By JEFFREY COLLINS - The Associated Press

State Supreme Court Chief Justice Jean Toal suggested Wednesday that the appeal of a man on death row for raping and strangling a Clemson University student could be used as a warning to South Carolina prosecutors who ignore fairness and take what she called a “win at all costs” approach.
Jerry Buck Inman is appealing his conviction and sentence, saying the man who prosecuted his case should have been removed because he intentionally intimidated a witness testifying on his behalf.
The 40-year-old convicted sex offender confessed to killing 20-year-old Tiffany Souers in 2006 and pleaded guilty to murder. A judge then heard evidence about whether Inman should get a life sentence or the death penalty.

Remembering Memorial Day!

I found this really beautiful video from Humanity Healing , that helps us remember the significance of what Memorial Day is all about. I have several military families that train with me, and several members that have been deployed over the past three years. Thankfully, no one I know personally has been wounded or killed. However, we are engaged in two wars and the reality is we have men and women who continue to be in harms way. Let's say a prayer for the fallen, and those still serving on the front lines! Thank you to all who serve and those that gave their lives to protect our freedom! Happy Memorial Day! Sensei Chris Feldt Samurai Karate Studio Columbia, SC 29229 803-462-9425
