Gotta love this: "Fleming waited outside the courtroom Aug. 21 as his
case went before the judge. When his attorney returned and said the case
would be dismissed if he agreed not to take any legal action against
Darlington County law enforcement, he said, he reluctantly agreed." In
other words, "we will stop abusing our authority if you don't challenge
our abuse of our authority."

This type of thing probably would never happen in an area where there is
real crime. However, in a low crime area you have "wanna be cops" who
get tired of eating donuts at the coffee shop, and overreact to every
incident.
