She is being held under a $30,000 secured bond.

ORANGE COUNTY, N.C. — UPDATE: Monique Brady, 43, has been released on a $30,000 bond. The judge ordered a condition on her release that she has no contact with Ramone Alston or Jacobia Crisp. Brady's next court date is September 13.

Orange County deputies have arrested another person in connection to a convicted killer who escaped custody in mid-August.

Monique Brady, 43, the convict's sister, was arrested and charged with felonious aiding and abetting a fugitive and harboring an escapee.

Brady is being held under a $30,000 secured bond.

You may remember, Ramone Jamarr Alston escaped custody on Aug. 13 while being transported for medical care.

Deputies found Alston in a hotel in Kannapolis on Friday, Aug. 16.

He was serving a life sentence for shooting into a Chapel Hill home where a bullet hit and killed a one-year-old on Christmas Day in 2015.

Alston will also face charges related to the escape.

Deputies also arrested his female acquaintance from Alamance County, 32-year-old Jacobia Crisp. She is charged with felony aiding and abetting a fugitive. 

More arrests are possible as the investigation continues.
