COLUMBIA, S.C. --
Former HomeGold CEO Ronnie Sheppard was denied parole at a re-hearing in Columbia Wednesday.
Sheppard's company went bankrupt in 2003. At least 8,000 people in the Upstate lost about a quarter of a billion dollars.
About a dozen HomeGold investors from Pickens, Anderson, Greenville, Spartanburg, and Union showed up to voice their objections to Sheppard's parole.

Various presentations were made and a number of county residents voiced their views on a wide range of issues.
