Murder at 12 out by 45
Chris Pittman at the age of 12 when he murdered his grandparents for sending him to bed early after being sent home from school one day for fighting. A little background on Chris. He was raised by his father with his sister and he was almost tossed around from adult to adult so he never really liked adults from then on. He was diagnosed with depression and given an anti depression medicine to take. In November of 2001 Chris murdered his grandparents just shy of midnight and took the dog, weapons, and the family car and was spotted not too far away by police shortly thereafter. Chris is now 19 and is in adult jail and has been ever since the incident.

Watery Drug Smuggling
Smuggling dugs over the boarder now easier with semi-submersible boats. These submarine type drug boats carry larger loads and they are quicker from Columbia to Miami. 23 cases within 3 months set the record for the combined previous 6 years. How the boats work they are strung onto other vessels and they just catch a ride to the coast.

High Bail Set for a North Charleston Man
A North Charleston man was set a high bail due to a police chase resulting in many citations. The 23 year old Adrian Carey I don't believe should have even recieved bail. His bail is set high at $175,000. He has many other charges along with failure to stop for police. He was driving a stolen vehicle under suspended liscence, but the main thing was he colliding hitting a 29 year old woman injury her while being wanted on state probation and parole warrants.
I dont believe he should have recieved due to the fact he was wanted then adding these charges. The 29 year old female was in critical condition at MUSC as of Saturday after being thrown from her vehicle once Carey ran through a red light hitting her. With his bail being set so high people wonder why he has any possibility of getting back on the streets so soon.
