Bennett said the offenses are alleged to have occurred on five separate dates in May and June this year at the correctional center. The offenses also include one count of kidnapping.
Murashige, has been warden of the Maui Community Correctional Center since 1991.
His bail was set at $100,000.
Propotnick said as of June 4 Murashige has been put on administrative leave without pay for 30 days.
Murashige, 46, was arrested at his Makawao home Wednesday night by special agents for the state attorney general. Bennett said the case was brought to the attention of the attorney general's office by a letter last week from the victim that she delivered to Maui state Rep. Kika Bukoski.
