Washington (WCSC) – South Carolina’s law enforcement department confirmed on Monday night that there was an active investigation into attacks, voyeurism and harassment involving the former fiancé of US representative Nancy Mace.

“Trace has opened an investigation into the allegations of attack, harassment and voyeurism on December 14, 2023, having contacted police in Capitol of the United States,” Sled Underlich spokesman said in a statement. “Since SLED has held numerous interviews, has served numerous search orders and has a well -documented case file that will be available for release after the case is completed.”

The topic of the sled investigation is Patrick Bryant, whom Mace described as a former fiancé during a speech on the floor of the American house earlier on Monday night.

Wunderlich said the investigation was active and continuing and “included numerous lawyers”.

She said that when the investigation is completed, it will be sent to a prosecutor for review.

Bryant released a statement shortly after speech:

I strongly deny these claims. I take this issue seriously and will fully cooperate with all the necessary legal processes to clear my name.

During her speech, Mace has accused Bryant and three other men of what she called “some of the most abundant crimes against women who may introduce themselves,” but claims they are not faced with prosecutors even after prosecutors are received evidence.

The first area of ​​Congress -Kongres claims that four men from Sullivan Island, Palms Island, Plezant and Rock Hill Mountain spoke to carry out rape and make undoubted operations and videos of women and minor girls.

She also claims that when she encountered Bryant about the evidence she found about the alleged crimes, he attacked her.

She also said that while visiting a property owned by one of the men in 2022, she serves two small vodka soda and unexplainedly darkened. She said she had found many videos of women who were naked or were abused and said one of her videos was showing.

However, none of the municipalities in which men live have been able to confirm that any such crime has been reported.

There is no evidence of accusations against any of the four men.

Mace also strives for SC General Prosecutor, his cabinet responds

Mace accused South Carolina Prosecutor Alan Wilson of Intentional Delays in the investigation and did not blame any of the men after being provided with “clear cut and dry evidence” that included videos, photos and witnesses.

Prosecutor Prosecutor Robert Kitel spokesman made a statement on Monday night, calling Mace’s claims about Wilson’s behavior “Categorically false:”

D -Mace either does not understand, or purposefully mistakenly characterizes the role of the Prosecutor General. At present, our office has not received reports or requests for assistance from any law enforcement agencies or prosecutor’s office on these issues. In addition, the Prosecutor General and the members of his cabinet did not have a role and did not know these claims until its public statements.

The Mace Congressman and the Prosecutor General have been at many events together in the last six months. She also has a personal number on the General Prosecutor’s mobile phone. She has never approached or turned to him with respect to any of her concerns.

With regard to her claim that the Prosecutor General declined to obtain evidence of a crime from the victim’s lawyer, it is important to clarify that the Attorney General is the Attorney General. For this reason, the Prosecutor General will always direct every citizen to provide evidence of a crime to the respective law enforcement agency, which would be responsible for the investigation.

After entering office, the Prosecutor General has given priority to strengthen the special Internet crime group against children, to create a special group for trafficking in people, which is now considered a model throughout the country, leads efforts to reform the laws of domestic violence of the state and created the laws of domestic violence and created state laws for the home and created and created the laws for domestic violence and created state laws for the home and created state laws for domestic violence and created the laws of the victims of crime that facilitated victims. S Before he was a prosecutor, Alan Wilson served as an assistant lawyer and assistant Prosecutor General, successfully pursuing many disgusting crimes against women and children.

It is clear that Prosecutor General Alan Wilson has built his career to protect the most vulnerable in our country; Each claim otherwise is clearly false and politically motivated.

Both Mace and Wilson are considered probable candidates in the governor’s competition in 2026 with Lieutenant Pamela Evet.

During his speech, Mays also encouraged anyone who can be a victim, report abuse and provide more information or evidence by calling 843-212-7048.

Editor’s note: Although reporter Nancy Mace called the four men during his speech, we do not name the three who are obviously not charged or referred to as the subject of a state investigation.
