A captain with the Laurens, S.C. police department has been arrested and charged with criminal domestic violence, according to the S.C. State Law Enforcement Division (SLED).
Don Evans, 45, was arrested this week in connection with an alleged incident said to have taken place on November 27, 2015. According to warrants issued for his arrest, Evans allegedly bit his victim in addition to throwing her on a bed and pinning her down with his knees. He is also accused of inflicting “mental abuse.”
A bond hearing for Evans has been set for this week and SLED will reportedly investigate the CDV allegations at the request of the local police department. A county seat with a population of 9,000, Laurens is located in the Upstate region of South Carolina just south of Greenville and Spartanburg Counties.
Obviously this isn’t the first time the area’s crime fighters have landed in the news for the wrong reasons …

Evans allegedly bit his victim
Marv Albert on line one.
“Yesssssssss!”
I wonder if our hero in blue wears women’s underwear too.
The operative word here is “investigate” which seems to be a seriously lacking component of any CDV investigation involving law enforcement. Could be a set-up; wouldn’t be the first time. A State Trooper lost his career after the psychotic bitch he was married to set him up. He was eventually cleared but was denied reinstatement by the Patrol citing “public perception” as the reason. Hang in there, Captain.
This happens pretty regularly with cops in this state.
Other than the bite, any other reason, it got blog coverage?
Because it’s not really fair to pick and choose and not cover all cop arrests equally.
At least he didn’t murder his own unborn kid, like Ricky Chastain did.
It takes a sorry sack of **** to end their own kid’s life, just for political reasons!
Ricky Chastain should be so ashamed of ending this totally innocent child’s life. Abortion is the ULTIMATE form of child abuse!
Way to show how tough you are, using your position and strength to beat a woman. And way to make cops look bad. Hope this dirtbag gets the maximum in prison, and has to clean car windows at gas stations when he’s released.
He’ll probably get a popular blog that reports inaccurate things about SC politics when he’s released (assuming he does any time at all)
Ugh. I really hope not. But then, I doubt he can write a proper sentence. ;-)
