Sheriff Douglas "Humbunny" Pernell's family and friends, which included S.C. Law Enforcement Division Special Agent Tempestt Hough — who is Pernell's goddaughter and family friend — were clearing the plaques and pictures from the walls of his office and sifting through his desk drawers looking for things that didn't belong to the county. When they got to a drawer at the bottom of the credenza beside Pernell's desk, the packing up stopped. The drawer was locked, and no one could find a key. A pair of Pernell's deputies came up with a plan: they'd find a prybar to force the drawer open. When the drawer slid open, the fluorescent lights hanging in the ceiling illuminated secrets that the most powerful law enforcement officer in Dillon County appeared to have kept from every person who knew him. Those secrets made everyone a suspect, including the late sheriff's own family and those inside his own administration who trusted him the most. 🔗See link in bio for the full story. #douglasp...
