A convicted rapist has claimed that he was not getting his medication on time from officials at HMP Dodds.
Kinchar Lavone Mascoll, 43, who is currently awaiting sentencing on two rape cases told the No. 2 Supreme Court today that he should get medication twice a day, morning and afternoon, but sometimes he only gets it in the afternoon.
He told Justice Randall Worrell today despite his complaints: “Nobody ain’t paying me no mind . . . . I ain’t get no meds this morning, all I get is breakfast,” the Drax Hall Jump, St George resident said.
Given those utterances Justice Randall Worrell requested a report on Mascoll’s medication regime from the prison’s mental health clinic.
Attorney Michael Lashley Q.C., said Mascoll had been complaining about the issue. The lawyer said he had informed his client about the contents of the final victim impact statement submitted to the court. However, Lashley said “out of an abundance of caution” he would prefer that Mascoll’s issues were dealt with first.
The convicted man, who also goes by the alias Rhino or Monkey Man, has pleaded guilty to raping a 15-year-old girl on December 1, 2015, and a 43-year-old woman two weeks later, on December 17.
The prosecution represented by Senior Crown Counsel Oliver Davis has urged the court to consider imposing two concurrent life sentences on Mascoll, with a minimum period of 40 years until he is eligible for release.
The defence has put forward a starting sentence of 15 years in prison based on the information contained in Mascoll’s psychiatric, psychological and pre-sentencing reports.
Mascoll has several previous convictions including indecent assault of two females; two assaults with intent to rape and a rape conviction for which he has already spent 15 years in prison.
