No Bond For Child Molestation Suspect

McCaysville, GA  – Kevin Joseph Warbington of McCaysville, GA, 32, arrested and charged with aggravated sexual battery and two counts of aggravated child molestation on August 21.

GBI assisted McCaysville Police Department with the investigation of Warbington after McCaysville believed Warbington had left the area and potentially the state. GBI reached out to Spartanburg County South Carolina’s Sheriff’s Office to locate Warbington at Jordan Road in Lyman, South Carolina.

On August 21, deputies located and arrested him on the outstanding charges in Fannin County.

Fannin County Sergeant Marc White and Deputy Eric Wood picked up Warbington from Spartanburg County Detention Center on August 22. He’s currently awaiting a bond hearing for his two counts of aggravated child molestation and one count of aggravated sexual battery.

Warbington’s suspected of explicit and disturbing molestation of a minor in two different instances in 2017 and 2018.

Magistrate Judge Brian Jones denied Warbington bond on the grounds of being a flight risk, posing a significant threat to others, risk of intimidating the witness, and potential to commit a felony.

The Braselton Police Department and the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office have also been instrumental in assisting the GBI and McCaysville Police Department with trying to locate Warbington.
