Graham Statement on North Charleston Shooting

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today made the following statement on the shooting death of Walter Scott.

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Walter Scott. The horrific video is very difficult to watch and deeply troubling on many fronts.

“I have full confidence this incident will continue to be investigated by the relevant authorities, the legal process will proceed, and ultimately, justice will be done.

“I also know the actions of the officer in this situation do not accurately reflect on the many valuable contributions made by thousands of law enforcement officers in South Carolina and across our nation.”
