As reported last week, the 80-year-old woman got separated from her daughter while at the Warwick Hotel last month. After she was missing for about 40 minutes, a Homeland Security agent from Charlotte found her and helped arrest the suspect accused of assaulting her.

According to Eyewitness News in Nassau, 61-year-old Godron Wilkie was granted a $30,000 bond. His attorney asked for bond on medical grounds.

Channel 9 is working to learn if there are any conditions to his bond, including whether he’s able to leave the country and if he’s now out of jail.
