Father of NC college student 'furious' after career criminal allegedly kills daughter in USC house burglary

Dickey was present in court last week for a bond hearing, accompanied by Federico and other family members. Attending the hearing was crucial for him to support Logan, and he expressed his commitment to continue showing up until his daughter receives the justice she deserves.

The father, who is grieving the loss of his daughter, expressed his gratitude towards the Columbia police for their swift actions in locating and apprehending Dickey. He specifically mentioned two officers whom he considers as his “friends” for their support during this difficult time.

“These officers down there, wow. Superheros.”

“They’re now my friends. All of them are,” he said. “Just special people. Really special people. They found their calling.”

Charges against Dickey include murder, two counts of first-degree burglary, two counts of possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime, possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, two counts of grand larceny, grand larceny of a motor vehicle, and three counts of financial transaction card theft.

He was given a probation sentence for a burglary charge in 2023, which was reduced for compliance. His next court appearance is scheduled for July 25. He faces life in prison for the charges filed against him in Lexington County.

Dickey’s attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
