The bill, S. 564, is a concurrent resolution introduced in the South Carolina General Assembly to honor four law enforcement officers for their exceptional bravery during a critical incident. The officers recognized are Chief Deputy J. Chase Iseman from the Lee County Sheriff's Office, Lance Corporal Gene Mike Norris from the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, and Special Agents Neal Nelson and Spencer Pumphrey from the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division. They were awarded the 2024 South Carolina Sheriffs' Association Medal of Valor for their courageous actions during a shooting incident involving a McBee police officer, which required a swift and decisive response to prevent further tragedy.

The resolution details the events of September 19-20, 2024, when the officers engaged in a dangerous situation involving an armed suspect who had shot a police officer and was subsequently located. Despite facing intense gunfire, the officers' quick actions were instrumental in neutralizing the threat posed by the suspect, who was found to be armed with multiple weapons. The resolution expresses the General Assembly's deep appreciation for the officers' dedication to their duty and their commitment to protecting the citizens of South Carolina. A copy of the resolution will be presented to the honored officers.
