ST. CROIX — Jimmy Davis, a serial felon whose rap sheet includes possession of cocaine and aggravated assault and battery, was supposed to be doing hard time in federal prison, according to a February release by the V.I. U.S. Attorney's Office.
Davis has even been accused of kicking a police officer.
"All of Davis’s recent sentences were ordered to run consecutive, for an aggregate total of 5 years" in federal prison, the U.S. Attorney's Office February release said.
But on Saturday a "WANTED" bulletin from the U.S. Dept. of Justice started circulating, with Davis's picture front and center, stating that Davis had violated a supervised release, and asked those who may come in contact with him "use extreme caution" because "subject has violent tendencies and has been charged with assault and battery on law enforcement officers."
Now, in a release issued Saturday, V.I.P.D. Public Information Officer Toby Derima said a 15-year-old girl on Friday night walked into a police station and told officers that Davis raped her.
Davis, who is said to have led police officers on a chase on Saturday, is still on the loose and dangerous.
According to police, Davis is a 42-year-old Hispanic male, 5 feet 9 inches in height, and weighs 210 pounds. He has black hair and brown eyes, full beard and has a scar on his neck. He frequents Estates La Vallee, Profit, and Whim.
If you see Davis, call the V.I.P.D.'s tip line at 340-778-4950, or send an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers USVI here. You may also contact U.S. Marshal David Charles at 407-473-2977.
Chief Judge Wilma A. Lewis in February sentenced Davis to 12 months in prison on possession of cocaine conviction and to an additional consecutive 12 months in prison on aggravated assault and battery conviction. Additionally, after his release from prison, Davis was placed on supervised release for a period of one year. He was also fined $1,000 and received a special assessment of $25 on the possession conviction and was fined $100 on the aggravated assault and battery conviction.
The aggregate 24 month sentence was also ordered to run consecutive to the 24 month sentence Davis previously received on November 25, 2019, when his supervised release was revoked for assaulting and choking his live-in girlfriend. The earlier sentence followed his April 2019 jury trial convictions, and was consecutive to the 12-month sentence Davis received on December 12, 2019, after pleading guilty to impeding and resisting a Federal officer, following an episode where federal officers were trying to transport him to prison in Puerto Rico.
According to trial testimony, on February 26, 2018, VIPD arrested Davis on an outstanding Superior Court warrant. At the time of his arrest Davis was in possession of 9.61 grams of crack cocaine. This cocaine was located in the Davis’s front right pants pocket. The DEA Southeast Laboratory in Miami, Florida, subsequently analyzed the crack cocaine and confirmed it to be cocaine base, a Schedule II controlled substance.
Additionally, while Davis was being processed and booked at the police station after his arrest, he became boisterous, verbally threatened, and then intentionally kicked a VIPD officer in the right thigh. This occurred while the officer was discharging his official duties.
