Flowers is accused of trading his duty-issued shotgun for 12 methadone pills on or about Sept. 9, 2008.

It’s not clear how long Flowers had been employed by the sheriff’s office.

He is scheduled to have a bond hearing at 4 p.m. today in Richland County.

That’s sad that those holding position in office,suppose to be against illegal drugs and crime are part-takers in such crimes.These are the ones that should have the book thrown at them.Because they know to do good and don’t!
