Federal Judge Alicia Otazo-Reyes said in a ruling that Fahey is unlikely to become involved in criminal activity if released.
According to the Associated Press, citing the judge's decision, the prime minister may stay in his daughters' apartment in Miami until the trial, provided that family members surrender their passports and Fahey himself wears an electronic bracelet.
Earlier, British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss announced the detention of the Prime Minister of the Virgin Islands in the United States.
