Re: leaving the scene of an accisnt resulting in death in South Carolina
It would be a lot easier to help you if I knew more about what happened. How many other people were involved in the accident and were other's injured? Was your nephew injured? Would medical assistance to the deceased have made any difference? Clearly it was not the intent of the statute to punish a person for going to call the authorities. Do you have any of the police reports? [email protected]
