MIAMI, Florida, USA- Erick Abraham Rabsatt, who is accused of fatally shooting US Army veteran and businessman Jaimez A.J. Stoutt at a bar on Tortola on December 11, 2021, and subsequently fleeing the jurisdiction, was scheduled to be extradited to the Virgin Islands from Miami on Tuesday, August 12, 2025.

According to sources close to the situation, however, Rabsatt suffered a “medical emergency” and his arrival in the Virgin Islands via aircraft was delayed.

It is now unclear when Rabsatt will be brought to the VI and handed over to local authorities.

The murder suspect reportedly remains detained by ICE in Miami.

Arrested by US Border Patrol

Rabsatt was apprehended by US Border Patrol in April 2025. In a Facebook post on April 30, 2025, US Border Patrol said its Special Operations Group arrested a fugitive with an “Interpol red notice for murder out of the British Virgin Islands”.

It said the suspect, a Dominican Republic national illegally in the US, bolted as agents approached.

The 23-year-old, according to US Border Patrol, ran through steep hills and thick brush in attempting to evade arrest.

Fatal accident charges

Rabsatt was also charged on March 15, 2021, in relation to the accident that claimed the life of motor scooter rider Ryan Adams, 20, at Duff’s Bottom, Tortola, on October 23, 2019.

He was charged with Causing Death by Dangerous Driving and Perverting the Course of Justice.

Rabsatt had allegedly fled the scene of the accident but turned himself over to police days later.

    Dusman's niece on FB saying "Its forever free you" in regards to Rabsatt's extradition to the BVI. I wonder how she or the family would feel if people were to be chanting the same thing regarding Dusman's killer. These young girls have absolutely NO morals or common sense.

    He should be made to serve 100 years in prison. 50 for each victim. They need to send the killers in the BVI to South Africa out in the bush to go up against the Cape buffalo aka Black Death that took out the hunter from Texas. They like pulling guns. let them go up against a buffalo the size of a small bus.
