CHARLOTTE AMALIE, St Thomas, USVI — Aubrey Frett, 30, of St Thomas, United States Virgin Islands (USVI), was arrested on May 1, 2019 on an indictment charging him with possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number, possession with the intent to distribute crack cocaine, possession with the intent to distribute marijuana, and possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking offense.

United States Attorney Gretchen C.F. Shappert made the announcement of the arrest and charges.

If convicted of possession of crack cocaine with the intent to distribute, a term of not more than twenty years and possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute, a term of not more than five years in prison. On the possession of a firearm during a drug trafficking offense, Frett faces a consecutive five year term of imprisonment.

The US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the [US] Virgin Islands Police Department investigated this matter and the case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Everard E. Potter.
