Kevin Russell Wilmont, 28, was found in willful violation of the terms and conditions of probation Tuesday and had his suspended sentence activated by Judge Douglas R. Sasser in Bladen County Superior Court. In April, Wilmont did not meet with his probation officer and was not able to be located.

Wilmont, of Bladenboro, plead guilty on Dec. 2, 2014 to felony assault on a handicapped person stemming from an incident on Sept. 7, 2014, according to N.C. Department of Public Safety records. He was given 30 months of supervised probation.

Wilmont had been placed on probation on at least four other occassions since 2006, state records show. He spent six months in state custody in 2007 on drug-related charges.
