St. Thomas, USVI – United States Attorney Gretchen C.F.
Shappert for the District of the Virgin Islands announced that a complaint has
been filed against Nathaniel Robinson for attempting to smuggle marijuana into
St. Thomas. Robinson made his initial appearance in federal court Monday in St.
Thomas.
According to the affidavit filed in the case, Robinson was
stopped at the Cyril E. King airport after arriving in St. Thomas from Miami,
FL. CBP officers then searched his luggage and found the approximately 3
kilograms of marijuana.
This case is being investigated by the Department of
Homeland Security. It is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney
Kyle Payne.
A complaint is merely a charging document, and it is not
evidence of guilt. Every defendant is presumed innocent until and unless found
guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
