SCDC Director @BryanStirling: “Jake is a shining example of corrections. He understands the entire process—from preparing people for reentry at the start of their incarceration to ensuring they have the skills and support needed to succeed in society.” Congratulations, Director
I have appointed Jake Gadsden to serve as the next director of @SCDPPPSNews. The future of this department will be in good hands under his leadership, and I look forward to the positive impact he'll make as we work toward building a safer South Carolina.

“Today marks a milestone for the SC Department of Corrections as we take a huge step forward by signing this bill. It has always been against our rules, but now it is against the law.” - @BryanStirling on SC’s new law that makes it illegal for an inmate to possess a cellphone.
