Stop in evening church meal service leaves city stalled
Randy Scott’s tenure as Columbia’s police chief will end May 1, he announced Monday, but too many questions regarding his work and resignation remain unanswered. After three weeks of taxpayer-funded leave and a $50,000 state-sponsored retirement package, Columbia residents deserve more complete explanations than officials have provided so far.
The robbery of three students this past Tuesday in Five Points was a terrible event, as are all the robberies, shootings and sexual assaults that have recently taken place around Five Points and USC’s campus.

When Columbia Police Chief Randy Scott announced his sudden sabbatical from his high-profile post a week ago, we were confused.

With the twisted weather roller coaster Mother Nature has been taking us on over the past few weeks, it’s sometimes easy to forget those April showers and May flowers will be here soon. In the brief period between chilly winter mornings and sweltering summer days that we in Columbia call spring, there’s much more to look forward to than the Woodlands pool finally opening up. With spring comes the onslaught of weather-primed events, many of which are located right in our own backyard.
