Former Chief Judge Richard Dana Todd Jr. of Georgetown, South Carolina, faces serious charges of unlawful conduct toward a child after being suspended from his judicial post. Allegations include inappropriate touching of a nine-year-old while viewing explicit content on his phone in 2023 and 2024, reportedly endangering the child’s mental well-being. The South Carolina Supreme Court’s Chief Justice swiftly suspended Todd, calling his continued service a threat to public trust and the justice system. Todd is now in custody and awaits further court decisions — a sobering case underscoring that accountability has no exceptions, especially when children are involved.
