Crenshaw calls for counterpart to resign
Oconee Sheriff Mike Crneshaw says his counterpart at Greenville, Sheriff Will Lewis, should step down. Crenshaw is a member of the board of the South Carolina Sheriffs Association which yesterday terminated Lewis’s membership. According to reports, Lewis has publicly admitted to a consensual encounter with a former employee. Crenshaw says, in 2015, he supported a by-law change that gives the state association the authority to hold its members accountable. Said Crenshaw: “I use the same standard for my fellow Sheriff’s that I use for my deputies. I would have terminated a member of my staff in the same circumstances as Sheriff Lewis. I do believe he should resign.”
