Broward County, FL

A judge has ordered a mental health evaluation for Donavon Banton, the 24-year-old man who was accused of stalking XXXTENTACION’s mother, Cleopatra Bernard, and was arrested for breaking into her house. According to The Blast, the evaluation will be used to determine is Banton is mentally fit for trial.

Banton has previously traveled from New York to Bernard’s Florida home on several occasions and allegedly harassed her. Back in January, he attempted to break into her house by throwing a brick through her window and used another brick to smash her Range Rover’s windshield, which reportedly resulted in $3,500 worth of damage.
