St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands– The Virgin Islands Police Department’s Domestic Violence Unit
is investigating a case involving the unauthorized dissemination of private sexual images.
On September 18, 2025, a male victim reported the incident to the Richard N. Callwood
Command. In a statement provided to the Domestic Violence Unit on September 26, 2025,
the victim stated that on September 6, 2025, he was informed by a family member that
photos depicting him engaged in sexual acts with a woman were being circulated on social
media.
The victim indicated that upon viewing the images, he recognized the setting and subjects,
identifying the location as Ms. Kalila Roberts’ residence. He further stated that during the
