🚨Former RCSD K9 Deputies Arrested🚨
Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott announces the arrest of former K9 Specialist Isaac Page, 34, and former K9 Specialist Kory Mayo, 34, both on charges of misconduct in office.

On January 22, while searching social media platforms a Richland County investigator found some items for sale that appeared to be for law enforcement use. Further investigation revealed that it was Page who was selling the items. Investigators set up a time and location to make a purchase at which time Page did show up, while on duty and in a county vehicle to make the sale. Mayo was identified as also being involved in previous transactions, on duty and utilizing his county vehicle. Both Page and Mayo have been misappropriating department equipment for personal gain for several months.

Immediately upon learning this, they were terminated on January 23, 2025. Today, January 29, they were arrested and charged with misconduct in office and have been booked in at the Alvin S. Glen Detention Center.

“I am angry that these two individuals betrayed not only my trust but the trust of the community,” Sheriff Lott said. “They have tarnished the badge, and the trust of their brothers in blue, and I will do whatever it takes to ensure they never work in law enforcement again.”
