posted (June 2, 2016)
Kishane Mcdougal, a man who had also been charged with sexual molestation of 13 year-old girl, was brought back to court today.

Viewers may remember that he was arraigned last year on one count of unlawful sexual assault of the child. Well, he was arraigned on 5 additional counts of unlawful sexual assault of the same girl when he appeared before the Chief Magistrate, Anne Marie Smith.

His attorney, Herbert Panton, submitted that because no disclosure has been provided yet for the first count it should be struck out. But the prosecutor pointed out that Mcdougal has been charged with 5 more counts and they are all indictable offences.

According to the police investigation, these new charges are for incidents which happened between December 2015 and January 2016, five separate occasions where McDougal is being accused of having intercourse with the same child.
