Thanks to a liberal Sheriff, Courts, Police and Elected Officials like Charlotte Mayor Vi Lyles, it was only a matter of time until Dickson became either one more young black male charged with murder, or another greasy spot on a street that Charlotte Fire had to hose down.

Nine reported arrests in Charlotte since his 16th birthday, six arrests in 2019 alone.
Then Dickson made a simple geographical error, he unknowingly wandered into York County, South Carolina.
It's not hard to do, make a wrong turn in the Steele Creek neighborhood or drive down Carowinds Blvd and suddenly you are in South Carolina which plays by a whole different set of rules.
Arrested by CMPD on the 16th of August on unrelated charges Dickson was on his way out the door when SC issued a Governor's Warrant for his extradition to York County. He was held until the 23rd of August 2019 when he was released to York County deputies.
His arrest, thanks to a sharp eyed York County Sheriff's Deputy and a couple of security cameras and countless finger prints left at a crime scene.

27 Criminal Conspiracy
Here's the CP bonus: This is just one arrest, but there are enough charges here to lock Dickson up for 15 years if a judge decided to boxcar the sentences.
So the question is, does this make York County Charlotte's answer to our "out of control" crime problem? Do we need to rely on other jurisdictions to enforce our laws and deal with crime from a common sense stand point? Hugs and barbershop schools are not going to rehabilitate thugs like Dickson.
What do you think?

So this spook did all these crimes in Charlotte and never saw jail time more of the catch and release in Mecklenburg County and then gets charges in York county and he's off the streets. Cool!
I just hope York County sends the hotel bill up to Charlotte to get paid. I moved south one county for a lot of reasons. If the crime, and the cost of crime follow me, I'm not going to be happy. If Meck had done even half of its job, we wouldn't be housing this fine young man for the next 2 years down here.
It's bad enough Tepper has his hand in our pocket for the practice facility. keep the criminals up on your end of 77.
This is normal?
It's been that way for over 20years that I know of but probably much longer. Our regular shoplifters were catch and release here in Mecklenburg but occasionally they would disappear for awhile. We'd start asking around and find out they got caught in SC.
Stupid thugs I'm going to guess they don't even know that South Carolina is a different state.
I now work for an agency in SC after retiring from the illustrious CMPD. The charges down here get dismissed just as often as the ones in Meck. However, the bonds are huge most of the time and it takes a couple years before court in most cases. The backlog is tremendous.
