A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION TO EXPRESS THE PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY UPON THE PASSING OF LIEUTENANT LANSING P. "PETE" LOGAN OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA LAW ENFORCEMENT DIVISION, TO CELEBRATE HIS LIFE, AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.
Summary
H4922 is a concurrent resolution expressing the South Carolina General Assembly’s sorrow at the death of Lieutenant Lansing P. “Pete” Logan of the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED), celebrating his life and service, and extending sympathy to his family and friends. The resolution recounts Logan’s long career in public service, including military service in the U.S. Army, work with the FBI on major historical investigations, and more than three decades with SLED and the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office.
The resolution highlights Logan’s role in major criminal investigations, his mentorship of law enforcement officers and prosecutors, and his instrumental role in developing the South Carolina State Grand Jury. It also notes several honors he received, including the Order of the Palmetto and recognition from SLED and the FBI. The measure is commemorative in nature and does not create or amend substantive law; it serves as an official expression of respect and condolence by the General Assembly.
Impact
Because H4922 is a concurrent resolution, it has no direct effect on the South Carolina Code or on regulatory requirements. Its legal impact is limited to the legislature’s formal expression of sympathy and recognition, and it directs that a copy be presented to Logan’s family. The resolution does, however, publicly memorialize Logan’s contributions to SLED, the FBI, the Attorney General’s Office, and the State Grand Jury, reinforcing his legacy within state law-enforcement institutions.
Sentiment
The sentiment around the bill is uniformly positive and respectful. The resolution is written in a celebratory and mournful tone, emphasizing Logan’s distinguished service, reputation, and influence on South Carolina law enforcement. There is no recorded opposition, committee debate, or vote history indicating controversy.
Contention
There are no notable points of contention in the available record. The measure is a noncontroversial memorial resolution, and the context provided includes no committee transcripts, amendments, or recorded votes suggesting disagreement. Any discussion would likely center on honoring Logan’s legacy rather than debating policy.
