The bill H. 4330 is a concurrent resolution from the South Carolina General Assembly that recognizes and honors K-9 Kodak of the Richland County Sheriff's Department. The resolution celebrates K-9 Kodak's posthumous award of the South Carolina Sheriffs' Association Medal of Valor, which he is receiving for his courageous actions in the line of duty that ultimately led to his death. The resolution recounts the events of October 5, 2024, when K-9 Kodak, along with his handler K-9 Specialist Samantha Ramirez, was involved in a pursuit of a suspect. Tragically, K-9 Kodak sustained severe injuries while attempting to track the suspect and, despite emergency care, succumbed to his injuries shortly thereafter.

The resolution expresses the General Assembly's grief over K-9 Kodak's loss and acknowledges the bravery and dedication of law enforcement animals and their handlers. It emphasizes the importance of K-9 Kodak's contributions to public safety and the sacrifices made by law enforcement officers. The resolution concludes with a commitment to present a copy of the resolution to K-9 Specialist Samantha Ramirez, honoring her partnership with K-9 Kodak.
