In 1985, he created controversy by saying "damn niggers" from the bench into a microphone that he may have thought was turned off. He had been referring to a group of black protestors who were displeased about the conviction of a black man for the killing of a white man in Pendleton, South Carolina. The York County Justice Center was named in his honor over the objections of the NAACP. (en)
