The report focused on the local angle, however, when the reporter interviewed Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright and implied by his questions that the sheriff is at least partially to blame for a local spike in murders due to his oft-repeated advice to citizens that they apply and get the training for carrying concealed guns for personal protection.
