Pelion business man denied bond again

Posted

Sam Jackson, Jr. of Pelion faced another bond hearing at the Lexington County Detention Center Wednesday afternoon. 

At the hearing, the judge denied Jackson bond on 8 embezzling charges saying that it was his belief that Jackson was a flight risk, reported Paul Kirby on the Lexington Ledger website.

When suspicion originally surfaced about Jackson, he fled the state with a woman who wasn't his wife and tried to evade arrest by turning off his cell phone. He was arrested in North Carolina in January.

Jackson has been in jail since Feb. 7, after being unable to post a surety bond of $15,000.

Additional charges may be pending.

His next court appearance is scheduled for April 4.
