1. Man gets 3 years for Mount Pleasant domestic violence assault: Solicitor (counton2.com) — A Mount Pleasant woman's longtime husband has been sentenced to three years in prison after a jury found he intentionally struck her near West Coleman and Houston Northcutt boulevards, knocking out a front tooth. Prosecutors say photos and medical impacts convinced jurors the injury wasn't accidental, and local solicitors emphasized accountability in domestic violence cases affecting Mount Pleasant families.
2. 3 Lowcountry nominated as finalists for Reese's 'trick-or-treatiest'top street (counton2.com) — Mount Pleasant's Pitt Street is getting national attention as one of Reese's top trick-or-treat destinations, thanks to its walkability, decorations, and community spirit. Alongside James Island's Wappoo Drive and Ion's North Shelmore Boulevard, the street is in the running for a Halloween block party prize, but residents say they'll keep building elaborate displays and haunted attractions regardless of the contest outcome.
3. Roundtable brings Sen. Graham, state leaders, law enforcement together on reducing crime even more in Lowcountry (counton2.com) — Mount Pleasant police joined other Lowcountry law-enforcement agencies in a Charleston County roundtable with Sen. Darline Graham and the U.S. Attorney General on reducing violent crime. Leaders discussed better information sharing, funding needs, and feedback on "Logan's Law," a proposed violent-offender database aimed at keeping repeat offenders off local streets.
4.
