Jermaine Johnson on Crime

 

 


Mental health teams to de-escalate crises not needing police

Jermaine would raise the salaries for and hire additional state and local law enforcement officers around the state to ensure the safety of all South Carolinians. Jermaine would also ensure that there are mental health response teams trained to handle the de-escalation of crises that don't need armed police intervention, so that those officers can focus on preventing crimes and keeping neighborhoods safe. Police do their job best when they have trust and buy in from their communities.

It is time to pass a hate crimes law in South Carolina

It is time to pass a hate crimes law in South Carolina. Our state is one of only two in the nation that does not have any hate crime legislation. This is not about black and white but about protecting the lives and dignity of all South Carolinians.
