Questions remain in the Pawleys Island Community Church case after a judge dismissed charges against a registered sex offender accused of volunteering around children and the church leaders accused of allowing it. Convicted sex offender Warren Perry had been accused of volunteering at a church with a day school, and authorities alleged the pastor and several church leaders knew of his past. Perry was charged with criminal conspiracy and obstruction of justice. Pastor Don Williams and Niki Howard faced charges of obstruction, unlawfully placing a child at risk or causing a child harm, and criminal conspiracy. The defendants were cleared in court Friday, after a judge dismissed the charges.
