Fourteenth Circuit Solicitor Duffie Stone has been appointed by Governor Nikki Haley to serve on the S.C. Commission on Prosecution Coordination.
Stone joins four other solicitors on the commission as well as Senate President Pro Tempore Glenn McConnell, House Judiciary Chairman James Harrison, Chief of SLED Mark Keel and Director of the Department of Public Safety Leroy Smith. The group is tasked with coordinating all activities involving the prosecution of criminal cases in South Carolina.
Stone has served as chief prosecutor for Beaufort, Colleton, Hampton, Jasper and Allendale Counties since 2006.
“I appreciate the confidence Governor Haley has shown in me,” Stone said. “I am looking forward to working closely with the other members of the Commission. Together, I think that we can do a great deal to improve public safety throughout our state.”
