DUBUQUE, Iowa — A 23-year-old Dubuque woman was arrested early Sunday morning, October 25, 2026, on two felony probation violation counts and a misdemeanor charge of voluntary absence from custody, according to an arrest report.

Akaiah Ca’saundra Dennis, 23, was taken into custody at 3:40 a.m. on Sunday, October 25, 2026, at 2000 Clarke Dr. in Dubuque. The arresting officer is listed as T. J. Warner.

Dennis faces the following charges:

•  Probation Violation (felony)

•  Voluntary Absence From Custody (misdemeanor)

•  Probation Violation (felony)

Court records attached to the report show the probation stems from a second-degree burglary case. Dennis pleaded guilty to Burglary 2nd Degree, a Class C felony, on April 21, 2025, before Judge Michael J. Shubatt, for an offense dated May 7, 2022. The sentence imposed that day included a 10-year prison term, suspended, with 5 years of probation and a 1-year residential facility term, plus a $1,370 fine, also suspended. A separate record entry lists a violation of probation offense dated February 9, 2026, with no adjudication shown.

The arrest report also references an order to issue a public/bench warrant signed by Judge Thomas A. Bitter.

The report does not describe the conduct alleged in the current probation violations, the circumstances of the voluntary absence charge, or a court date. Those details were not available Sunday morning.

No further information has been released. This story will be updated as court records become available.

Dennis is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
