MUSC security officer arrested

Wednesday, July 23, 2008


Charleston County sheriff's detectives arrested a hospital security officer Tuesday on two charges of committing a lewd act on a minor.

Thales Newsome, 60, of Johns Island is a security officer at the Medical University of South Carolina, accord- ing to a Sheriff's Office report.

A public information officer for the hospital did not return a phone call Tuesday about Newsome's job status.

Affidavits stated that Newsome twice committed lewd acts on a 13-year-old girl.

A state Department of Social Services employee contacted sheriff's deputies Thursday after receiving an anonymous tip, a sheriff's report stated.

Newsome's bond was set at $10,000 and he was expected to be released from jail late Tuesday.

He looked crazy on the news yesterday too....He looked like a german shepard with no hair and red eyes.

Did anyone see Stephanie M' interview last night on TV? I feel sorry for her, she need to stay out of the news if she want this to go away though.
