Gaskill in court

A Farwell man accused of breaking into a nearby home, and abducting and raping an 11-year-old girl did not know the girl or her family, police said.

Justin Gaskill, 27, is accused of taking the girl from her bedroom at knifepoint and taking her more than a mile to his house, where he is accused of raping her twice before apparently trying to return her home.

“In more than 21 years of police work, I have never seen a random child abduction,” state police Lt. Christopher Stolicker, commander of the Mt. Pleasant post, said after Gaskill’s arraigment in 80th District Court in Harrison Monday.

Gaskill, hanging his head and answering questions in a barely audible voice, was charged Monday afternoon with two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct and one count of kidnapping.

Both carry maximum penalties of any number of years up to and including life in prison.

Clare County Prosecutor Norm Gage also charged Gaskill with one count of home invasion, an eight-year felony; one count of felonious assault, a four-year felony; and put him on second-offense habitual offender notice.

If convicted, Gaskill, who was convicted of arson in Clare County in 2006, could get one-and-a-half times the maximum penalty because of the habitual offender charge.

[Just my luck sucks]

I'm thankful he didn't kill the 11 yo. I hope she is able to put her life together after such an awful violation.

I hope the other inmates treat this asshole as "well" as he did the child--but, for a much, much, longer time.

A 30-year-old Clare County man was sentenced Friday to 35 to 60 years in prison for kidnapping and raping an 11-year-old girl in 2008.

In addition to the sentences for two first-degree criminal sexual conduct convictions, Justin Gaskill was ordered by Clare County Circuit Judge Roy Mienk to 35 to 60 years in prison for kidnapping.

That sentence is to run consecutive, or after, the completion of the CSC sentencings, Clare County Prosuctor Michelle Ambrozaitis said.

Mienk also ordered Gaskill to 200 months to 30 years for first-degree home invasion to be served consecutive to the kidnapping sentence; and 36 to 60 months for felonious assault, to run concurrent with the other sentences.

Gaskill was convicted of the charges after a four-day jury trial in Gladwin County in September.

I have noticed people being sentenced to prison for many years, and those years tend to run after they die. I think their bodies should be kept in the prison somewhere until the actual date they are to be released. You know, "you won't be free even after you are dead."
Damn pedophiles thinking they have the right.
Poor girl, she is going to need lot of therapy.

[AngelFire]

I rather he do life than the death sentence. That way he can be the one being violated until his death
