Buc-ee’s sued Born United, which operates stores in North Charleston, Summerville and Myrtle Beach, and its three owners on May 27, 2025, after discovering they used the company’s iconic cartoon beaver logo without permission — wearing military tactical gear and wielding a gun — and then sold it on merchandise.

Previously, state senator and part owner of Born United's Myrtle Beach location, Tom Fernandez posted on Facebook that the t-shirt did not use the Buc-ee's logo: "It’s creative. It’s different. And it’s protected." He further said Buc-ee's knows "that they'll lose this case. They're just trying to bully born united.”

As part of the final judgment, the Born United owners admitted to selling merchandise featuring the beaver logo, acknowledged that they had prior knowledge of Buc-ee’s trademarks and consented to judgment on claims of trademark infringement, false designation of origin, unfair competition and unjust enrichment.

Parrott, whose personal-best field goal is 60 yards, won the punting competition at the Kohl’s Midwest Spring Showcase this summer and is drawing interest from schools including Clemson, Appalachian State, Temple and Wake Forest.

A Berkeley County jury found Joshua Scott-Lee Butler guilty of murdering his future father-in-law, Earl Goodwater, during a 2023 dispute in Goose Creek. Prosecutors said the confrontation began after Goodwater stepped in to defend his daughter when Butler struck her. The couple's 1-year-old son was also at the center of the dispute. Family members separated the men, but Butler then went to his car, retrieved a gun and shot Goodwater in front of his family. Butler was sentenced to 45 years in prison.

Lincolnville preservation advocate Pernessa Seele is raising concerns about rapid growth in the historic settlement community, where some developments were approved after developers were unable to build them in Charleston County or North Charleston.

“One of the challenges here is everything is done in silos, and nobody knows what’s going on,” Seele said. “Most of the people, I believe, are against this. But it just passed Town Council.”
