Sounds like a real piece of work, who has a gift for always landing on his feet, no matter what he does.
Little bastard probably deserved it, have you ever been around an 11 year old?
That was not discipline! This was an attack in a fit of rage. If that father had done that to an adult he had been angry with it would have been considered assault. I am not against spanking or parents disciplining children at all. But rage & physical attacks on someone smaller than you is not disciplining. Sharing genes with a child does not make it legal to attack them. That is an abusive assault .
Good grief, thank goodness Wagner is leaving. His office dismisses cases like he’s giving away candy. Let’s hope Micah decides to revisit this case and recommend charges. Anderson will definitely be a much safer place under the new solicitor.
If Charles Frances Wohlleb, IV had struck the family dog repeatedly and jerked the animal by its arms until airborne, possibly dislocating the animal’s shoulder, and the event had been witnessed in full view of neighbors, and caught on video (with full audio), former Officer Wohlleb would have been arrested immediately and likely prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Why do SC laws seem to offer more protection to family pets than minor children?
As an adult, I was frightened watching the video. Wohlleb was completely unhinged seemingly over nothing. I can only imagine what life must be like for a young child forced to spend time alone with the parent he fears.
Because SC 10th Circuit Solicitor David Wagner declined to prosecute, former Officer Wohlleb’s wife, Kelly Wohlleb, is now locked in SC Family Court with an individual sporting a long history of alleged abuse.
SC DSS should refer evidence of the physical assault of a minor to the solicitor’s office or the police department.
Not vice-versa. This is upside down.
According to the SC public family court portal, the judges involved in the Wohlleb case are Judge Timothy Pogue and Judge Rochelle Conits, two individuals with demonstrated track records of bias and complete disregard for the rule of law.
At Judge Pogue’s December 2, 2024 JMSC screening, he was asked to comment on ballot box complaints reporting his bad temperament. Judge Pogue stated on the record that his temperament “must be good” if he could put up with John Gallman during a week long trial. The comment was so unexpected (and so wildly inappropriate), it drew an audible gasp from several audience members (myself included).
Notably, Judge Pogue made this statement directly to Chairman of the JMSC, SC Senator Luke Rankin, who ran against Mr. Gallman in the 2020 Republican primary, and to my understanding, is (or was) a party in an ongoing defamation suit.
Though Senator Rankin evinced no visible reaction to Pogue’s derogatory statement regarding Gallman, Rankin immediately moved to go off the record.
While off record, instead of reprimanding Active Retired Horry County Family Court Judge Pogue for disparaging a private citizen in public record (in clear violation of SC Judicial Canons), RANKIN PRAISED Judge Pogue’s egregious disparagement of Rankin’s former political rival by stating (with a wide smile) to Pogue, “That name you just said… all I’ll say is God bless you. God bless you.”
I’m going to write that line again… Senator Luke Rankin, head of the SC Senate Judiciary Committee, Chair of the SC Judicial Merit Selection Commission, SC Senator from District #33 (Horry County), and a party in an active lawsuit with John Gallman, PRAISED Judge Pogue’s egregious public disparagement of Mr. Gallman, Rankin’s former political rival.
After wishing “blessings” on Judge Pogue, Rankin immediately moved to go back on record.
On Judge Pogue, I personally witnessed him in action during an Horry County hearing in 2023 where he threatened everyone present in the courtroom against recording the proceedings, including the pro se litigant who attempted to record the hearing to aid in preparing any immediate filings that might be necessary before a transcript might be available.
At the start of the hearing, Judge Pogue made everyone in attendance stand up and raise their right hands and swear under penalty of perjury they were not recording. Judge Pogue informed the room at large that if any recordings of the hearing surfaced, the responsible party would be discovered and punished to the court’s fullest capability.
Any judge so committed to hiding corrupt practices in SC courts should NOT preside over a case in which an officer with a long list of infractions has allegedly committed a crime.
Lastly, regarding Mr. Gallman… I have investigated the allegations made during Senator Rankin’s campaign against Mr. Gallman in the 2020 Republican primary election for SC Senate District #33.
These allegations are not mere misrepresentations of fact. They are pure fiction stemming from hearsay codified into a court order by Judge Jan Bromell Holmes. The allegations against Mr. Gallman follow the same precise pattern used by corrupt attorneys and judges who collude to disparage parties and drive conflict which leads to additional legal fees in litigation. These false affidavits have become so common, it appears they are recycled over and over and different names are slotted in as needed. At times, I have suspected these artificial stories are products of AI.
At bottom, the Wohlleb case demonstrates the pattern of a corrupt family court being weaponized by an abusive partner, a corrupt solicitor failing to prosecute crime, the lack of prosecution further enabling abuse, a corrupt SC agency (DSS) being used to cover up criminal misconduct, a corrupt judicial merit selection commission nominating judicial candidates based on their willingness to rule in favor of their cohorts and to allow vexatious prolonged litigations to move forward, and an entire corrupt system existing to create unnecessary legal fees.
Because former officer Wohlleb owes back child support, he is incentivized to participate in a prolonged predatory litigation until a more favorable result for himself can be achieved. Meanwhile, the current system ensures Kelly Wohlleb and her son will be drained of resources and left with little to no protection.
