This story is a total letdown. Dylan tweeted some pretty juicy nuggets during the hearing and promised a full story. A week later, this is all we get? Good thing the Post and Courier gave the hearing a pretty thorough treatment, because clearly you’re not up to snuff.

Why are you so angry and full of hate? Don’t you know you cannot hide in the shadows? Your MAC address is recorded and your ISP, too.

Watch for your real name to be exposed?

You think Will Folks is going to dox someone who comments on his articles?

Over 50% of SC circuit court judges do not obey the Judicial Canons.

Ms. Woods’s article, which is informative, does not appear to be what Mr. Nolan suggested. I thought Ms. Woods did a great job of explaining the S.C. Bar’s ballot box system. The comment about certain Commission members encouraging the Honorable Bentley Douglas Price to stay in the race is interesting. I am wondering if the information is the result of an anonymous source or journalistic opinion. Maybe some clarification is in order. I am still hoping to find out what conclusions as to the SLED report were discussed as he was at the scene when police arrived at David Aylor’s residence. I also wonder if anyone bothered to ask how the S.C. Supreme Court would issue a writ requiring him to do his duly required obligations as a judge when failing to rule on whether certain documents in the Beach case were privileged and given this refusal why does he want a second term for a job he has refused to perform? I have heard he moves cases fast but yet has a high reversal rate on appeal. Including the case the witnesses testified about which was messed up with a grant of Summary Judgment in favor of attorney Alice Paylor’s clients. Within a short time of Judge Price assigning the case to himself. She is the Charleston County School Board attorney which is at the center of that shit show. In fact one of the other orders he gave Paylor’s clients was reversed by the court of appeals. Any discussion about this favoritism? I am hoping Fits will still give us some coverage on Judge Price’s hearing. If not than Doe you just might be correct!

While all these issues are being discussed about judges, why is no one mentioning Mullen?
