Wilkinson declined to give a statement at the time of his arrest. He was unable to post bail of $150,000 by order of the court and was remanded to the Bureau of Corrections pending his advise of rights hearing.<\/p>\n

Officers were called to the Roy L. Schneider Regional Medical Center\u00a0at 7 a.m. on Feb. 11 on a\u00a0report of a victim of rape being treated.<\/p>\n

According to the victim, she had been walking on the roadway behind a bar-restaurant in Frenchtown at around 5:40 in the morning when she was approached by a black male with dreadlocks who asked to borrow a cigarette lighter.<\/p>\n

The victim complied and the suspect returned the lighter, but then forcibly grabbed the victim in a chokehold, dragging her into the nearby bushes and raping her. The suspect ran off in the direction of the Oceana Restaurant, as the victim made her way toward the Frenchtown Fish Market in search of help.<\/p>\n
