on Feb 2 a British tabloid published pictures of American Gold Medalist Michael Phelps smoking marijuana out of a water bong. Now The Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott not to be confused with Leon Lett the former football star is receiving major heat from its citizens.
I'm here today to suggest that the sheriff focus on more serious crime instead of wasting the County's precious tax dollars on a college party.I think the people of the County would be much safer at the end of the night if he did. Unless Sheriff Lett is looking at a different set of National stats,
According to www.bestplaces.net the violent crime rate is well above the nation average.
Richland County, SC, violent crime, on a scale from 1 (low crime) to 10, is 7. Violent crime is composed of four offenses: murder, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. The US average is 3.
Richland County, SC, property crime, on a scale from 1 (low) to 10, is 5. Property crime includes the offenses of burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, and arson. The object of the theft-type offenses is the taking of money or property, but there is no force or threat of force against the victims. The US average is 3.
Whatcha think?
