A Statesboro man is in jail on charges he bilked two people out of thousands of dollars, and the Bulloch County Sheriff's Office says there might be other victims. During the past month, two Statesboro residents contacted sheriff's investigators saying they were the victims of fraud at the hands of Ronnie Wilkerson, 53, of Peachtree Street, according to a news release issued Wednesday by Sheriff Lynn Anderson. Both residents told investigators that Wilkerson solicited money from them under false pretenses, cashed fraudulent checks with them and tried to convince them they could participate in an estate settlement he supposedly was about to receive.
