State police said a domestic call on Prospect Avenue in the Village of Maybrook led troopers to a kidnapping case involving Jerry Carrasquillo, 46, of Maybrook. Investigators with the New York State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation in Montgomery arrested Carrasquillo on June 4 after determining he unlawfully restrained and held a 47-year-old woman against her will inside the residence.

Troopers said they safely removed the woman from the home and took Carrasquillo into custody without incident. He was transported to State Police Montgomery for processing before being arraigned in Town of Newburgh Court and remanded to Orange County Jail.

The charges reflect more than a single assault allegation. Carrasquillo was charged with kidnapping in the second degree, three counts of criminal contempt in the first degree for alleged violations of an order of protection through physically menacing behavior, two counts of aggravated criminal contempt for alleged violations of an order of protection causing physical injury, and assault in the third degree. Under New York law, kidnapping in the second degree is a Class B felony, while aggravated criminal contempt applies when a person violates a duly served order of protection and intentionally or recklessly causes physical injury or serious physical injury. New York courts describe an order of protection as a court order used to limit harmful or threatening behavior.

The case was posted in the state police newsroom on June 5 as a Troop F-Middletown item, and the next court date was set for June 9, 2026, at 5:30 p.m. Bail was set at $50,000 cash, $50,000 partially secured bond or $200,000 secured bond on the kidnapping count, with separate bail on the assault charge.

Maybrook’s 2020 Census population was 3,150, underscoring the small scale of the village where the arrest unfolded and the seriousness of the allegations now moving through Orange County court.
