He was charged with first-degree sexual abuse and lodged in the Fayette County Detention Center on a $5,000 cash bond.
Court records show that a protective order had been filed against Wilcox on Aug. 20, but was recalled the next day. He is due in court on Nov. 3 in connection with the order petition.
