Mullins police chief says SLED will investigate after forensic audit; department reports hires and operational changes
Summary
Police Chief Phil M. Mostowski told the Police Committee a department report (included in the meeting packet) notes that the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division will investigate following a forensic audit; the report also lists two recent hires, a new RMS contract (PatrolLogix) and an invitation for council to take ride-alongs.
Chief Phil M. Mostowski gave the Mullins City Council Police Committee an operational update at its May 7 meeting and submitted a written monthly report (included in the packet) that says, “SLED will investigate after forensic audit.” The packet shows the document date as May 22, 2026 and is included with these minutes.
In the written report, Mostowski said the department had hired two certified officers and that a cadet completed a four-week training program; the packet also lists one open patrol position. The report notes the department “signed new RMS contract (PatrolLogix)” and that both CID and office staff have been reassigned temporarily to patrol for coverage.
Mostowski wrote in the packet, “I would like to extend an open invitation for all council members, to take part of our ‘Ride Along Program.’” He also thanked the council for its support in the signed letter included with the minutes.
The minutes record that Mostowski presented the department’s update and answered questions from the Committee, but the excerpted minutes do not record specific committee questions or any follow-up direction to staff. The packet’s inclusion of an investigative statement and the later packet date are recorded here exactly as presented in the materials provided to the Committee.
