Christale Spain, the South Carolina Democratic Party (SCDP) Chair released the below statement on the release of the Dash-Cam footage (also below) from Mullins McLeod's May arrest. McLeod (pictured) on Monday announced he was running for governor of South Carolina.
"Mullins McLeod is a skilled attorney, a former county Democratic Party chair who worked tirelessly for our values, and a member of a proud Lowcountry family with a long tradition of public service.
After reviewing the transcript of the dash cam footage from his recent arrest, it is clear that Mr. McLeod is navigating profound challenges and should focus on his mental and emotional well-being instead of a campaign for governor.
We offer him compassion and pray he finds the support he needs."
