If this were a lower level state employee, Sanford would have fired them, call for a criminal investigation, or both.

yoooohoooooo Mr. Floyd, I have details I would appreciate you considering….
I believe there is something to investigate. I believe I could convince you if….
you have not already made up your mind, or taken your orders not to investigate.

Sanford’s office did not announce it would pay back the full $8000.00.
They said an unspecified portion of the total would be reimbursed. That is a difference worth noting in your post Will.

That fellow seems to “know his place.” Not only are there reasons to believe wrongdoing occurred, there is probable cause to believe Gov Mark Sanford engaged in illegal acts.

Regardless of investigation, this is going to be a wild roller coaster of a political season. Its going to be nasty.

Imagine if the governor in question were a Dem and the SLED Chief declining to investigate was put in place by that gov.!

The howls from this site, it’s right-wing nut ilk and the editorial boards of The State, Post & Courier, Herald-Journal, etc. would be so loud sexy Maria could hear them in Buenos Aires.

Oh well, the rules are different when you have Jesus as a card-carrying member of your party, I guess.

How do you know whether a crime has been committed if you will not look?

No witch hunt needed if the governor would resign. He has held himself out as the standard-bearer of accountability. To be accountable for our actions means knowing when we can no longer serve in a leadership capacity.

The amount of money that could potentially be involved in this witch hunt isn’t worth anyone’s time to pursue.

Shocking that Lloyd isn’t going to “investigate” the man who gave him his job – a job that he didn’t really deserve nor was he qualified.

From this point forward, the political posturing will get grotesque.

Sanford should resign and save everyone the trouble.
