Supporters of the LGBTQ community gathered outside of County Square ahead of the controversial re-vote on the sunset resolution. I’ll have the latest tonight on @WSPA7. Here’s my story from yesterday: wspa.com/news/greenvill…
County council is packed. There’s a capacity limit of 227 in this room and we are full. At least 50 people are also in the lobby of County Square.
They are keeping the doors of County Council open so those outside can hear what happens. Seems like more people are pouring in by the minute. Maybe 100 in the lobby at this point.

Rauch Wise now giving the defense closing arguments.
Wise saying there is only circumstantial evidence in this case. Says if there is a reasonable possibility they have to find Lewis not guilty.
Wise says if anyone had a right hand person who was female it would be normal to tell everyone else not to have relations with her because she had sensitive information. Says this was not a sinister thing to do.

Closing arguments happening now.
Solicitor Brackett says he's not proving that Lewis committed adultery. Brackett says Lewis was set on Nabors "from the word go." Says that's not a crime, but that the crime was that Lewis used his office to make that happen.
Brackett says the taxpayers pay money for the sheriff to keep the public safe, not for Lewis to "get in Savanah Nabors' pants."
