SOUTH CAROLINA DEMOCRATIC PARTY CALLS ON ATTORNEY GENERAL TO RESIGN

Aug 07, 2017

“You can’t have an unbiased justice system when the AG colludes with those under investigation.”

Columbia, SC — Today, SC Democratic Party 2nd Vice Chair, Anthony Thompson called on South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson to resign his office as a result of emails proving he sought advice from Richard Quinn on how best to remove Independent Prosecutor, David Pascoe.

“The appearance of collusion exposed in yesterday’s Post and Courier makes it clear that the time has come for the Attorney General to resign. At best, he has used poor judgment that compromises public faith in both the ongoing corruption probe and his office. At worst, he has participated in obstruction of justice,” Thompson stated.
