Five South Carolina Supreme Court justices took their work on the road to add some transparency to their process and to teach citizens about the law. Furman University’s McAlister Auditorium was one of stops on the tour where the justices heard four cases in two days of proceedings Oct. 24 and Oct. 25.  WSPA 7 News (CBS) covered the event hosted by The Riley Institute. WSPA Reporter Elise Devlin spoke to two Furman students, Caroline Bozza and Alex Han. WHNS FOX Carolina and WYFF News 4 (NBC) also covered the hearings. The news was picked up in Myrtle Beach by CBS affiliate WBTW, and in Charlotte on FOX 46 Carolinas.
