JUSTICE Roxanne George has sentenced 22-year old rapist Stanford Dick to 15 years’ imprisonment for rape committed on a 53-year- old woman.
Dick had appeared at the criminal assizes and pleaded guilty to the two criminal charges. The offences were said to have been committed on 28th October, 2008.
According to prosecutor, Miss Konya Sandiford, the accused had first planned to rape the woman’s 14-year-old daughter, but after the mother pleaded with the accused not to subject her daughter to such an act, he decided to commit the offence on the aged woman instead.
The same night the woman and her daughter reported the matter to the police and Dick was arrested and charged.
The judge had requested a probation report,   but that report was unfavourable to the accused.
