Who in this state did this poor guy piss off such as to merit a public shaming like this even after he has left S.C. for Tennessee two years ago? Pulled because he wasn’t standing fully behind the steering console, but instead just to the left while his right hand was still on the steering wheel? And that led to it being noticed that he drank 3 beers and pinged positive on a breathylizer- but he didn’t cause a penny of property damage, never actually harmed a hair on a single person’s head, and apparently was in no outward threat to do so? You just described described half the boaters on the water in this state on any given summer weekend. Should they all lose their jobs too? I have no idea who this dude is, but I can’t help feel some sympathy for this guy – sure he deserves a citation & fine, but not a ruined career. If he actually did some kind of harm, then this would be a different story. And no, its not an “endorsement” for the school to say we’re gonna let the legal situation play itself out under these circumstances -oftentimes the legal punishment is punishment enough if there is no obvious moral turpitude involved.
He was principal to thousaunds of rich columbia citizens. Its news whether you like it or not. Im an avid boater and agree with your thoughts on the boatingf aspect.
Now that I think about it there was definitely controversy, I just cant remember what they were. i just remember no one in his grade would talk to him. Skyhawks jump in here.
I cannot figure out how this is “update” or “follow-up” worthy. He no longer lives in SC. No one died. His reputation and ego is bruised enough where he currently lives. You all did a good job reporting throughout the Murdaugh saga where it seemed your staff had a true investigators slant in uncovering details that were not being reported by mainstream media. This feels personal and unnecessary. And is definitely not worth the monthly subscription cost.

The endorsement of drunk boating by Baylor School speaks volumes. Let’s also remember the high school kids who admire their headmaster are watching…
Zzzzzzzz

Man I remember Bill Folks being one of the biggest discipline problems hammond has ever seen. Didnt he get kicked out? Asked to leave?
