Ajahny Joseph, 25, was extradited to St. Croix July 3, where he was booked, with bail set at $75,000. Unable to post bail, Joseph was remanded to the John Bell Adult Correctional Facility pending an advice of rights hearing set for July 6 at the Superior Court, reported the Virgin Islands Police Department.
An arrest warrant was obtained April 7 in connection with a report that was made Feb. 9 regarding the sexual assault of a minor. An investigation into the matter disclosed that a female minor had been allegedly sexually assaulted by Joseph. Upon further investigation, it was discovered that Joseph was no longer on St. Croix, and the warrant was entered into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database, according to a police report.
Detectives were subsequently notified that Joseph was in custody in Orange County, Fla.
