• Steps made in future trial for Lowcountry deadly shooting, involving ex-officer (live5news.com) — A judge has moved forward key steps toward a June trial for former Summerville police officer Anthony Delustro, charged in the 2024 fatal shooting of Michael O'Neal outside the Main Street Chick-fil-A in Summerville. The hearing focused on preserving evidence, accessing investigative records, and shaping jury selection, with both sides preparing for a closely watched Lowcountry case.
• South Carolina reaches new record number of infants surrendered under Daniel's Law (foxcarolina.com) — An infant was safely surrendered at HCA Healthcare Summerville Hospital on October 3, contributing to a record 11 babies relinquished under South Carolina's Daniel's Law so far this year. For Summerville residents, it's a reminder that local hospitals and police stations serve as designated safe havens where parents can legally and anonymously surrender newborns up to two months old.
• Reader photo pick of the week: Fall foliage (postandcourier.com) — Two Summerville residents, Rick Peterson and Lisa Greenslit, earned top recognition in a regional fall foliage photo contest, showcasing scenes from Massachusetts and North Carolina. Local readers are invited to submit architecture-themed photos by Tuesday for a chance to be featured online, in print, and possibly in The Post and Courier's annual My Charleston magazine.
