NORCROSS -- Sheriff's Department authorities are investigating an alleged shyster who ripped off a Gwinnett dignitary and longtime school board member after being contracted for tree services.
#Victimized in the June transaction was Louise Radloff, 76, a Gwinnett Public Schools board member of nearly 40 years -- among the longest tenures in Georgia -- once named the county's "Citizen of the Year," officials said.
#Jackson County resident Edward Nelson, 46, is accused of ripping off Radloff for $900, according to his arrest warrant. Nelson remained at large Wednesday. Radloff could not be reached for comment.
#"We're looking at the possibility that there are other victims of this particular scam as well," said Sheriff's Department spokeswoman Stacey Bourbonnais.
