Antonio Ramirez-Garcia

(KNZA)--An August jury trial has been set for a resident of Mexico facing sex-related charges in connection with an alleged February incident in Holton.

The Holton Recorder reports 38-year-old Antonio Ramirez-Garcia stood mute during his arraignment last week in Jackson County District Court and his attorney entered not guilty pleas on his behalf to charges of rape, aggravated criminal sodomy and aggravated sexual battery.

A three-day trial was set, beginning August 1st.

Ramirez-Garcia was initially charged with rape but the two additional charges were added following a March 27th preliminary hearing.

He is accused of sexually assaulting a former co-worker during a party at a Holton residence early February 10th.

Ramirez-Garcia was arrested five days later after Jackson County Sheriff’s deputies located him in Topeka.

He remains in the Jackson County Jail, held on a $50,000 bond.
