A former volunteer police officer with the Grantsville Police Department is in Central Regional Jail after being sentenced in Braxton County for falsifying time slips while employed as a deputy by the Braxton County sheriff.
Shane Dellinger, 31 (left) was sentenced on multiple counts of falsifying time slips related to services being provided by a government DUI grant.
Dellinger will spend 60 days in Central Regional Jail and two years on home confinement.
He was also given five years probation and ordered to make restitution, assigned to community service and required to take drug and alcohol testing.
Dellinger was reportedly under investigation by the State Police in Calhoun County related to allegedly taking money from a concealed weapons class he gave in the community.
The outcome of that investigation has never been made public.
Dellinger was either removed or resigned from the Grantsville Police Department following an incident related to credentialing, with several residents claiming they did not receive a $35 refund from the officer after he gave a concealed weapons class.
Calhoun Sheriff Ballengee said Sgt. Dellinger did not produce adequate credentials showing he was qualified to give the class.
Former Grantsville Chief of Police Ronald James Gordon, 58, is currently incarcerated in Central Regional Jail on sexual abuse offenses.
