He was released on a $25,000 bail for a prosecutor’s objections. Circuit Court Judge Nolan Dawkins released Bouaichi on the condition that he only leave his Maryland home to meet with his pretrial lawyers or service officials. Alexandria police say Bouaichi, 33, shot dead the woman in late July. Authorities said federal marshals and Alexandria police detected and pursued Bouaichi in Prince George’s County on Wednesday.

Unfortunately, the pandemic continued the trial date for several months and we didn’t have the opportunity to present our case.”

Police said the woman was originally from Venezuela and had no family in Venezuela. The Washington Post reported that there was very little information available about it. The Associated Press does not identify people who may have been sexually assaulted.
