Former Bladenboro town manager indicted

BLADEN COUNTY, NC (WWAY) — State investigators say Bladenboro’s former town manager was expected to turn himself into them this afternoon after a grand jury indicted him this morning.

Delane Jackson is charged with felony obtaining property by false pretense in excess of $100,000.

A SBI spokeswoman says Jackson is accused of taking money from the Town of Bladenboro.

Bladen Online reports the SBI probe involved a company called Cygnus, which the town paid to do wastewater treatment work when Jackson was manager.

Jackson resigned from the town in 2013.
