(City of Wilmington) Two former elected officials in Delaware — ex-Wilmington Councilman Bill Freeborn and ex-state Rep. Rebecca Walker — face public corruption charges after being indicted Tuesday. Freeborn was executive director of the public-private Wilmington Neighborhood Conservancy Land Bank for more than a year until leaving the agency in August. He is accused of accepting at least $28,000 in unauthorized cash deposits from potential buyers for properties the Land Bank did not own. Mat Marshall of the Attorney General’s Office said prosecutors could not be specific about what Freeborn did with the unauthorized money. Marshall said the Land Bank does not accept cash from potential buyers and noted that the investigation is ongoing.
