Cooke has been cited with sexual assault of a child, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, luring a child and furnishing alcohol to a minor.
Ronald Cooke, 58, will stay in custody without bail while facing several charges tied to the alleged kidnapping and sexual assault of a child under 13.
The arraignment took place Wednesday in Windham Superior Court, where the judge ordered him held.
The case stems from a late July investigation by the Brattleboro Police Department after a report of a sexual assault involving a minor at the Colonial Motel on Putney Road. Investigators said the suspect was known as Max, and police identified that person as Cooke based on earlier law enforcement contacts.
