Supreme Court of South Carolina

The State, Respondent v. James Clyde Dill Jr., Petitioner.

June 20, 2018423 S.C. 534

Summary

The South Carolina Supreme Court held that the search warrant issued for James Clyde Dill Jr. lacked probable cause because the affidavit and supplemental oral testimony were insufficient, rendering the warrant invalid. Consequently, the evidence obtained was suppressed and Dill's conviction was reversed. The Court declined to address Dill's remaining arguments.
