Randy Scott Resigns As Columbia Police Chief

As we reported exclusively three weeks ago, Columbia, S.C. police chief Randy Scott’s “indefinite suspension” has become a definite termination.

The third-year police chief – who inherited his job in the midst of a major scandal involving the city’s incoming mayor, Steve Benjamin – is resigning in the midst of another major scandal. In between these corrupt bookends he provided the city with galling incompetence and a marked deterioration in public safety.

So yeah … that worked out well. And for the bargain basement price of $112,000 a year (not counting benefits).

Scott actually “retired” for fifteen days a few months back and was then “rehired” as part of an effort to milk every last cent out of the state’s pension fund.

He should have stayed gone …

Scott has been accused of all manner of indiscretions – most of them involving his alleged substance abuse problem and the not-so-secret party pad the married father of eight keeps just off of Main Street in downtown Columbia, S.C.

Of course he also figures prominently in several lawsuits filed against the city in recent months … which we’re guessing will be the “official story” related to his resignation.

lol….I remember commenting a couple of weeks back about how everyone knows cops have the best dope and “Mike at the beach” responds that I watch too many cop movies/shows, etc.

Funny shit.

Mr. Top Cop exceeded my normal negative expectations when it comes to gov’t goons, “workers”, etc. by not only dealing in dope by being a Master Pimp that hosts as well.

Kudos to him for setting the bar even lower than my super low expectations.

So when did T-Bone Benjamin go down? Is there any independent gov’t agency ready to cannibalize this fool yet? Or is it gonna take some street thug that didn’t get his crack ball or $10 hoe from Benjamin with a lead pipe to do the job?

Dude, never let people live in your head rent free like that, or at least don’t admit it publicly! Most rational folks don’t think a handful of stories about crooked dufus cops translates into the 10,000+ cops in SC “having the best dope.” That’s just a bit of a leap. It’s actually MUCH easier to buy dope from a trusted confidant than risk getting caught by evidence protocols within a PD, especially now in the “video-era.” I know, because I used to investigate these clowns. If ol’ Randy was going through blow at the rate some of the gossip hounds are intimating, I would bet you that he (or someone kissing his ass) was buying it. That’s just the way it is. You should be much more interested in the $50k+ he conned the City into buying out his retirement with! Scott was obviously hooked up.

Well, sometimes I’m too honest for my own good.

That being said, a close relative used to regularly buy dope from cops(plural) all the time. I think you are being naive about the whole thing, but to each his own.

No offense, man, but I’ve heard the tired old “I knew this guy who did so-and so” for 25 years, but when you get the investigation cranked down, 99 times out of a hundred it’s just people running their mouths. True in the dope world, the internal affairs world, hell, just about every part of the criminal enterprise. In Mexico, you’d be much closer to the mark. No drama here, though. To each his own, indeed.

No offense taken, I know the deal. You feel you know the deal. So we disagree obviously. I will depart the conversation with a nice quote though:

“Through my appearance here today…I hope that police officers in the
future will not experience…the same frustration and anxiety that I was
subjected to…for the past five years at the hands of my
superiors…because of my attempt to report corruption. I was made to
feel that I had burdened them with an unwanted task. The problem is that
the atmosphere does not yet exist…in which an honest police officer
can act…without fear of ridicule or reprisal from fellow officers.
Police corruption cannot exist unless it is at least tolerated…at
higher levels in the department. Therefore, the most important result
that can come from these hearings…is a conviction by police officers
that the department will change. In order to ensure this…an
independent, permanent investigative body…dealing with police
corruption, like this commission, is essential.”-Knapp Commission testimony of Frank Serpico

Mike at the Beach April 23, 2013 at 12:06 am

That is an awesome quote, but just a bit unfair! I didn’t know we were talking about NYPD! That’s an entirely different situation (especially back in the 60’s and 70’s). Any good sociologist or criminologist will tell you that serious corruption is much more prevalent in the largest departments (for a host of reasons), and certain agencies are practically famous for it. I just don’t think dinky little Columbia PD fits the bill for large-scale, widespread, serious corruption like dope-dealing, but we all make mistakes…

The two I named, and possible others, have been responsible, along with Scott, for the systematic harassment, badgering, and intimidation of quite a few senior employees in that department. This includes placing those employees under surveillance in hopes that they might find one little thing they could use to suspend, fire, or otherwise torment them. Such behavior and use of official position to create such a hostile work environment is and should be unacceptable in this day and time. One down, at least two more to go.

COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) –

Documents show the City of Columbia paid nearly $52,000 toward Columbia Police Chief Randy Scott’s retirement fund.

On Friday, city officials released more details on Columbia Police Chief Randy Scott’s “indefinite” leave of absence.

Among the documents released was a Member Service Payment Invoice for the South Carolina Retirement Systems in Scott’s name dated from September 2012. That invoice listed a required member payment of $51,861 which was authorized by Steven Gantt, who was the city manager at the time.

The payment was made by the city to purchase just over 34 months of retirement service credit, which allowed Scott to collect retirement benefits after he was rehired 15 days after retiring at the end of December.

When I was 30 or so months from retirement why didn’t I think to go to the Director and demand taxpayers buy out my retirement

Maybe there was a class on how to be a cheap sh”it” like Scott or maybe I wasn’t working for a dumb sh”it” like Gantt who forked over thousands of City of Columbia taxpayer’s money, no questions asked

I hold no ill will toward Scott. If a piece of sh”it” like Scott can rip it off, then rip it off. Of course I don’t live in City of Columbia sh”it” hole nor do I shop in City of Columbia sh”it” hole so it ain’t my fucking money

Maybe with all the freebies the City of Columbia sh”it” hole has bestowed upon him, Scott will head down to the Bahamas or the Caymans and live the good life while the dumbsh”its” back in Columbia pick up his tab

I personally think Columbia has huge potential(and I like it anyway right now despite its warts) and I’ve lived and traveled in a lot of big and small cities.

It’s probably being retarded, both literally and figuratively right now. I think the key to Columbia thriving is to simply ignore the Statehouse and buffoons in local gov’t.

Business and a thriving economy in Columbia is the key to improving things, while doing your best to ignore the elected idiots despite whatever attempts they make to suppress the economy in the name of “helping” or being relevant in their minds.

The more they are marginalized the better.

Jay April 23, 2013 at 10:47 am

I’ve lived here for 15 years and have watched entire parts of the city become blighted out. Corridors that were once thriving are now boarded up, littered with garbage and frequented by the dregs. Columbia was on shaky ground when Benjamin took office and his poor decision making (professionally and personally) has sped up the regressive nature of this fledgling metro. Meanwhile, Knox White has literally transformed downtown Greenville in the same span of time. There is way too much posturing in city government here to get ANYTHING significant accomplished. The EPA is up their ass and around the corner to fix a sewer system that the city has been robbing the citizens blind to fix for over a decade and it’s not until they get hit with lawsuits that they get off their lazy crooked asses to do anything about. Let’s pump millions into the Palmetto Compress warehouse, but not spend a red penny to try stop our professional baseball team from being lured away to the upstate? All that time and money spent trying to sell the old stadium to Walmart developers, only to have that deal go south. That should tell you something about Mayor Benjamin’s ability to get shit done, not that I ever supported a downtown Walmart. It just proves that our city government is derelict.

I’ve lived in seven states and twelve cities all across the United States. I used to really brag on Columbia, suggesting to any of my friends looking for a place to settle down to “come give Columbia a try”. Sadly, I no longer do that. We play baseball at Trenholm Park, I routinely hear gunfire during broad daylight. I live in a great part of downtown Columbia, I routinely hear gunfire coming from the Gonzales Gardens area. I read report after report about rampant crime consuming Columbia and I just can’t, in good faith, suggest Columbia to ANYONE any longer. To know that our pathetic excuse for a police department is headed up by clowns like Scott and Santiago is to understand why Columbia is eaten up with criminal activity.

I understand your viewpoint. I can’t disagree with anything you’ve written. I’d just offer to “keep your chin up”, it can’t get much worse, right? Maybe the situation with the drunk driving, drug using, hoe pimping mayor will resolve itself like the top cop situation?

I’ve always felt like private security in 5 points could do a MUCH better job then the cops anyway. I don’t understand why one of the business owners don’t get everyone together down there and make it happen.

jay April 23, 2013 at 11:00 am

I’m trying to keep my chin up, really I am. Nothing else to do, being an owner of multiple properties in this god foresaken place. My fear is that, if Benjamin isn’t lead away in handcuffs soon, he’s got the election office so rigged in his favor that it will take an act of congress to get the deadwood out of his seat. Thoughts?

Sam April 23, 2013 at 11:20 am

? April 23, 2013 at 11:23 am

Yea, I really don’t know. You’ve got business decisions to make on the property’s, maybe juggling short term cash flow with long term expectations(which are up in the air)…so I understand your dilemma. I’m assuming they are income generating properties of course.

If they are not, well yea, I’d consider selling and moving the money someplace to generate cash.

Marc Faber, Jim Rogers, and others believe CERTAIN type of real estate are good hedges for uncertainty, inflation, etc.

I view owning real estate through the lens of it making me a convenient “tax cow” for malefactors in gov’t, but I came to that opinion over time and tax money before liquidating my real estate and leasing my business premises.

I live my life in a way to provide as little as lawfully possible to gov’t and focusing my energies on my business and productivity…

Real estate is really a mixed bag.

Jay Ellington April 23, 2013 at 11:32 am

Neither one are income generating any longer, effective 2007 when the non owner occupancy tax rape was put into effect. BOTH of my “investment” properties cost me dearly in criminal tax rates. I could understand it IF the quality of public school education had increased since I started getting bent over, but we are still at the bottom of the heap. I’ve actually considered ruining my credit and just walking away from all my Columbia property and moving, ALAS I will not be defeated or deflated by this cesspool. It has to start a purification process eventually, right?

? April 23, 2013 at 12:19 pm

Yea, but I agree sometimes the smartest thing is to simply “walk away”. The banks get their bailouts, but rest assured no one is coming to bail you out.

If it’s a negative cash flow situation you got to get out entirely and quickly, given the market that might mean walking away.

You might want to consider bankruptcy for a clean sheet as the issue gets resolved more quickly/cleanly and it makes everything the banks problem, including any past due taxes you have on the property.(you just wait it out, if the property is underwater enough the bank will probably do an “extend and pretend” and they will eventually be forced to pony up the past due taxes).

If you have the cash to play the waiting game, so be it. There are hedge fund researchers I read that say that inflation will stoke house prices back up….but the way I see it I have my doubts on the successful fundamentals to perpetuate things.

The only general consensus I’ve seen on real estate is farm land right now…(being “good”). Of course, many people don’t want to farm…but you can always be an owner/operator. Also, that’s still a “long term” play as well based on the demographics of farming.

jay April 23, 2013 at 12:35 pm

No, luckily I’ve managed to ride it out. Dutifully going down to the Richland Co tax office and emptying out my wallet once a year. Money I will not likely see again. Can’t take it with you right?

Fella strolled into whore house. All the girls began turning away except the newest girl of the house.

What are y’all afraid of she asked. Finally the madam said the girls didn’t care for the tattoo on the fella’s pecker.

The new girl was intrigued so she walked up to the fella and invited him upstairs. As soon as they got in the room she asked to see his tattoo which he willing obliged.

When he dropped his shorts the letters MSU were prominent on his pecker. The new girl was surprised and excused herself for a few minutes. She went downstairs and confronted the Madam and told her she was disappointed in the little MSU tattoo.

The Madam replied, Darlin why don’t you go back upstairs because by time you get up there that little tattoo will read Mississippi State University and you will be screaming for help.
