A great deal more news about Dennis Whitling's mounting legal troubles has come out since his resignation from the Orange County Board of Education was announced Monday night.
The Durham Herald-Sun has two articles on Dennis' current predicament. One exclusively covers the criminal aspect, while the other discusses the impact on the school board. Both articles report the indictments that charge Dennis with embezzlement of over $100,000 from his former employer, "corporate malfeasance, obtaining property by false pretenses and obstruction of justice."
According to the Raleigh News & Observer, Dennis was arrested and charged last Thursday by Durham Police, but was quickly released from custody after posting a $10,000 bond.
Last Thursday!? Why is this only coming out 6 days later?
Also, joining in the parade of media coverage is Hillsborough's own News of Orange with a story posted online today.
Finally, in a sort of validation of this as an important regional news story, even WRAL TV has coverage of it on their website.
I will do what I can to keep everyone informed as developments come to light.
