Charged with Felony Exploitation

Ocean Springs police are continuing an investigation into the case of a vulnerable elderly resident being exploited for money last month.

Over the weekend, with the help of U.S. marshals, police arrested 47-year-old Dwight Cannon, of Greenville, and charged him with exploitation of a vulnerable adult.

Detectives issued a felony warrant for Cannon on Sept. 9, when a relative told police Cannon took $6,000 to $10,000 from a vulnerable adult in Ocean Springs. Cannon fled Jackson County before the warrant could be served.

I bet the victim ends up in guardianship as a result of this low life's evil deed.

I hope to read an update later saying he's being sent away to prison.
