Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 64721, member: 636"] Authorities in South Carolina are examining a weekend fire that destroyed a resort island home belonging to Circuit Court Judge Diane Goodstein and her husband, Arnold Goodstein, a former state senator. The blaze injured at least three people who escaped by leaping from an elevated first floor and required a kayak rescue from the backyard. The Edisto Island property overlooks a marsh near a causeway linking Edisto Beach to the island off the South Carolina coast. Judge Goodstein recently issued a temporary order blocking South Carolina from providing its complete voter database to the U.S. Department of Justice, though the state Supreme Court later reversed her decision. The State Law Enforcement Division is investigating the cause of the fire. Three victims were hospitalized at the Medical University of South Carolina, with two transported by ambulance and one airlifted, but their current conditions remain undisclosed. [/QUOTE]
