While in Camden, South Carolina, Larry’s place of birth and where he spend his first 14 years of life, he was out drinking with his childhood best friend David Dukes. After becoming a bit intoxicated Larry and his younger sister were having a somewhat loud phone conversation.
His sister who always immediately went to the “I’m calling the Sheriff,,,” comment as Larry even though he was long since an adult, had not lived in the area for decades, his childhood history still lived on within the Kershaw County Sheriffs Dept. To avoid having cops show up at a Camden business over this Larry went to the Sheriffs Dept himself where he was met in the parking lot by a deputy. The deputy believing that he could determine what words Larry was permitted to use when referring to his sister told him if he referred to her as a “bitch” he would be arrested.
Larry never being one to fear anyone or anything, on top of knowing from a legal standpoint, whether the deputy liked the words used by Larry or not, he had no legal authority or right to tell Larry what he could or could not say especially when it is not directed at the deputy. The deputy then decided to demonstrate his ultimate authority placing Larry under arrest for “disorderly conduct” for refusing to refrain from using the word “bitch”. While this incident has been used and repeatedly published for 17 plus years to falsely claim Larry has a 27 year criminal history etc, this decision Larry has never seen as a bad one.
