Ensuring stronger ties between law enforcement and the communities they serve, the Pond Branch Community Crime Watch has announced plans to host a forum involving all candidates for the position of Lexington County Sheriff. This meeting is presently scheduled to take place on May 23, 2024, from 7:00 p.m. According to Bob Hall, an organizer for the group, the event will be held at the Pond Branch Methodist Church Activity Building.
The venue is conveniently situated at 1908 Pond Branch Road, Gilbert, just off I-20 at exit 44, opposite the side of the interstate from the 44 Truck Stop.
According to the information provided by Bob Hall, via an April 10, 2024, email, all four candidates who have filed to run have responded affirmatively and plan to attend the forum. These include candidate Garry Rozier. Despite some questions circling about whether Rozier has resided in Lexington County for the required length of time, he remains determined to participate in the forum.
Rozier has retained an attorney to investigate these concerns. He expressed his hopes on Tuesday that he will be featured on the June 11th Republican ballot. Emphasizing his commitment, he stated that even if he is excluded from the ballot, he will continue to seek the position as an independent candidate.
For more information on this community-oriented forum, Bob Hall welcomes inquiries at 803-960-0152.
This anticipated event hosted by the Pond Branch Community Crime Watch underlines the commitment of the Lexington County community to active civic participation. By providing a platform for all sheriff candidates to engage directly with residents, the organization showcases its dedication to fostering shared responsibility in enhancing safety and security throughout the county.
This forum serves as an opportunity for these candidates to articulate their vision for the Sheriff’s Office – providing the Lexington County community a more informed view when casting their votes in June. This engagement signifies a crucial component in strengthening the bond between law enforcement and the citizens they are commissioned to protect.
