A 52-year-old man who had been incarcerated in Tutwiler, Mississippi, was being held Wednesday on sexual abuse charges in connection with complaints involving minor victims from 2011-2016, Scott County Court records show.

A supplemental affidavit in Scott County Court says on or about Sept. 22, 2024, a report was filed with Bettendorrf Police alleging Pai 'sexually, physically, and emotionally' abused children between 2011-2016. One victim was between the ages of 11-12 and the other 9-14, Scott County Court records say. The victims reported that Pai hit them in the head with his hands, hit them with objects such as a broom stick, and deliberately hit their heads together. Also, the Scott County Court affidavit says Pai held down one minor, choked the victim, and flashed a Taser by a victim's head. Additionally, the report says Pai locked the victims in a dog kennel as a form of punishment. Both victims said Pai gave them marijuana, according to Scott County Court documents. One victim filed a report regarding similar sexual and physical abuse in Lamoille County, Vermont, according to an affidavit, which says from that investigation, Pai was 'arrested, convicted and incarcerated' for multiple offenses against a victim and the victim's mother. According to Scott County affidavits, Pai was incarcerated through the Vermont Department of Corrections and was housed in a facility in Tutwiler, Mississippi. Pai, who was being held Wednesday on a $75,000 bond in Scott County Jail, is scheduled for a preliminary hearing May 9 in Scott County Court.

The man said he was outside at the time and witnessed the incident. He tried to get the truck driver's attention, but the truck kept going.
