SC Lede: Scheme Within A Scheme — Scamming America's Veterans

The Post and Courier's Andy Brown at their offices in Charleston, SC.

On this edition of the South Carolina Lede, we look at a recent report by The Post and Courier which found that an Upstate law firm was connected to a scheme that preyed upon financially struggling military veterans while leading to alleged millions in profits. Host Gavin Jackson is joined by The Post Courier's Andy Brown to discuss his story, "Red, White and Fooled."

You can read the story on this Post and Courier's website here.

Then, South Carolina Public Radio's Russ McKinney stops by to quiz Gavin about South Carolina history in this week's Did You Know segment.

Plus, the week's top news, campaign trail updates, and more!
