Columbia, S.C. (WOLO) – Governor Henry McMaster issued an executive order reinstating Moe Baddourah.

Baddourah was suspended last year following an arrest for criminal domestic violence, a charge that has since been dropped after he completed pre-trial intervention.

Baddourah released a statement after the decision, saying in part that he will “ensure the future prosperity of the City of Columbia.”
