A South Carolina sheriff is pushing back on a historically Black university president's statement accusing law enforcement officers of racial profiling in a recent bus stop
In this image taken from FOX Carolina livestream, Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright speaks at a news conference Monday, Oct. 31, 2022, in Spartanburg, S.C. Wright said there was no truth to a historically Black university president's accusations of racial profiling in a recent bus traffic stop. COLUMBIA, S.C.
Dillard wrote that the scene was reminiscent of the 1950s and '60s: “armed police, interrogating innocent Black students, conducting searches without probable cause, and blood-thirsty dogs." “I wish racism would die the ugly, cruel death it deserves,” Wright said. “If anything we’re ever doing is racist, I want to know it, I want to fix it and I want to never let it happen again. But this case right here has absolutely nothing to do with racism.”
“If my guys see a bus weaving in their lane, and they fail to stop it to check that driver to make sure they're not too sleepy, then we could have a busload of Shaw students that was involved in a tragic traffic fatality," Mueller said.
