A Jamaican national, Roshard Andrew Carty, has been ordered to remain in custody pending trial in the United States, accused of masterminding a sophisticated lottery scam that defrauded an elderly American woman of over $800,000. The 34-year-old was extradited to the Western District of Washington on October 23, following his arrest in Jamaica on August 21. Magistrate Judge David W. Christal ruled earlier this week that Carty will be detained until his trial, scheduled for December 22.
