A concurrent RESOLUTION

TO EXPRESS THE 
PROFOUND SORROW OF THE MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY UPON THE 
PASSING OF LIEUTENANT LANSING P. "PETE" LOGAN OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA LAW 
ENFORCEMENT DIVISION, TO CELEBRATE HIS LIFE, AND TO EXTEND THE DEEPEST SYMPATHY 
TO HIS FAMILY AND MANY FRIENDS.

Whereas, the South 
Carolina General Assembly was deeply saddened by the passing of Lieutenant 
Lansing P. "Pete" Logan of the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division on 
December 17, 2025, at the age of ninety. Truly, the great State of South 
Carolina has lost a legend in this man who completed his career with more than 
sixty years of distinguished public service in law enforcement; and

Whereas, in 1989, 
having already concluded a highly esteemed career of public service with the 
Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Lieutenant Logan took up his duties with 
the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) and faithfully served the 
agency until his retirement in 2022; and

Whereas, Pete Logan 
began his life's work by serving all of us in the United States Army. While 
with the FBI, he worked the Selma bombings and the assassination of President 
John F. Kennedy. While serving with SLED in South Carolina, he was the one who 
persuaded Susan Smith to confess to drowning her two sons. He also was known 
for his mentorship of innumerable law enforcement agents and prosecutors, both 
personally and in the handling of complex criminal investigations and 
prosecutions; and

Whereas, further, he 
was instrumental in the development of the South Carolina State Grand Jury 
(SGJ) from its inception in 1989, and, as one of its founding fathers, he was 
recognized by the naming of the SGJ Conference Room in his honor in 2021. He 
also provided exceptional service to the SGJ and the South Carolina Attorney 
General's Office for more than three decades; and

Whereas, considered the 
gold standard in law enforcement, Lieutenant Logan received numerous honors 
over the course of his career, including the Strom Thurmond Award for 
Excellence in Law Enforcement for outstanding federal service to the Federal 
Bureau of Investigation (1987); the Order of the Palmetto, South Carolina's 
highest civilian honor, presented by Governor Henry McMaster (2018); and the 
South Carolina Law Enforcement Division Chief's Award (2021); and

Whereas, Lieutenant 
Logan rendered a lifetime of dedicated service and achievement to South 
Carolina and to the United States of America, and, in so doing, earned the 
supreme trust, confidence, and respect of his peers and the public. He leaves 
to cherish his memory his dear wife of more than fifty years, Fairey Belle 
Logan, a host of loving family and friends, and other admirers; and

Whereas, the South 
Carolina General Assembly is eternally grateful for Pete Logan's firm 
commitment to the pursuit of justice in the Palmetto State. The people of South 
Carolina were made better by his influence and will greatly miss his impactful 
presence. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the House 
of Representatives, the Senate concurring:

That the members of the 
South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, express their profound 
sorrow upon the passing of Lieutenant Lansing P. "Pete" Logan of the South 
Carolina Law Enforcement Division, celebrate his life, and extend the deepest 
sympathy to his family and many friends.

Be it further resolved that 
a copy of this resolution be presented to the family.
