Virginia man charged with sexual assault of 13-year-old girl in New Jersey 2 years ago FREE TO GO under NJ Bail Reform

Roly O. Garcia-Reyes, 25

A Virginia man has been arrested in connection with the alleged sexual assault of a 13-year-old girl in North Jersey 2 years ago – now released on nothing more than a “pinky promise” under NJ Bail Reform guidelines.

Roly O. Garcia-Reyes, 25, a non US Citizen living in Virginia, was charged with sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl he met on social media 2 years ago. Garcia-Reyes was also charged with endangering the welfare of a minor.

According to the complaint, the two had met on the social media site Tango. On April 20, 2016, after the girl did not come home from school, it was discovered during an investigation that the two had sex at a hotel in North Bergen.

The investigation led to the arrest of Garcia-Reyes in Prince William County, Virginia – two years later.

During his first appearance, Garcia-Reyes was released and FREE TO GO under NJ Bail Reform after the Arnold Foundation’s “Pretrial Risk Assessment” tool determined he was not a danger to the community or a flight risk and therefore should not be subject to any accountable release – just a “promise” to appear.

The release is yet another example of the thousands of unaccountable and FREE TO GO pretrial releases of those criminally charged under the NJ Bail Reform Act.
