A 53-year-old Manning man was arrested Aug. 27 by the Clarendon County Sheriff's Office and charged with exploitation of a vulnerable adult after an attorney told deputies the man took about $100,000 from an elderly woman.
Richard Allen Wise of 4075 Rowe Drive in Summerton posted a $10,000 surety bond through Anderson Bail Bond and Services the day of his arrest.
Reports did not indicate Wise's relationship with the woman, nor the time frame in which he allegedly took the money.
The incident was reported by a Manning attorney who represents the conservator and guardian of the woman in a civil matter regarding Wise's alleged taking of the money, according to a report from the Sheriff's Office.
