More charges against man already facing sex charges

By Joanie Morris

Kannapolis police arrested a man June 27 on two counts each of second-degree sexual offense and taking indecent liberties with a child younger than 12.

Detective D.F. Miller arrested Tommy J. Wilbanks, 25, 404 Coach St., Kannapolis, who remains in the Cabarrus County Jail under $160,000 secured bond. Kannapolis Police Lt. Ken Jackson said Wilbanks is accused of assaulting a girl and a boy.

On warrants obtained from the Clerk of Courts office in Cabarrus County, Wilbanks also has an address of 176 Harrelson Drive, Salisbury.

Kannapolis Police detectives received a report about incidents with one victim on April 15, 2008, from a relative of the victim, Jackson said.

“During the course of the investigation, the other stuff came out about the second victim,” said Jackson. Jackson couldn’t release much information on the cases. “These things are so sensitive when you get these types of reports.”

The warrants indicate that the offenses against both victims happened between Aug. 1, 2006, and Aug. 1, 2008. Jackson said both victims are known to Wilbanks.

Wilbanks already faces other charges of sexual offenses against a child.

In January 2007, Concord police officers charged him with one count of taking indecent liberties with a child. A month later, in February 2007, Concord police charged him with statutory rape against the same victim.

Wilbanks was released under a $2,000 secured bond. Both of those cases involved a minor child and were reported Dec. 18, 2006. Both of those charges are still pending with the Cabarrus County Courts. 

Wilbanks also had numerous other charges against him, including larceny, possession of a stolen vehicle and assault. 

His first appearance in court on the most recent charges will be July 17.
