Despite a spokesperson for Adult Probation telling SCDN that, to their knowledge, no one on probation was currently homeless, Lockhart is listed as homeless in the eight appearances he’s made in Portsmouth Municipal Court since May of 2022.
His previous arrests include over a dozen probation violations and multiple arrests for disorderly conduct, criminal trespass, and theft.
