Beaten child-rape suspect has mental-health issue
PHILADELPHIA Published in Saudi Press Agency on 27 - 07 - 2009


A child-rape suspect beaten by an
angry Philadelphia mob last month says he has mental-health
issues, according to AP.
Jose Carrasquillo disclosed the diagnosis before waiving a
preliminary hearing Monday on charges he violently
assaulted an 11-year-old schoolgirl. Neither he nor his
lawyer disclosed details of the condition.
The girl was kidnapped and raped as she walked to school
June 1. Police say they have DNA linking Carrasquillo to
the crime.
Prosecutors believe Carrasquillo also fondled a
16-year-old girl that morning at a bus stop and followed
her to school.
A group of city residents spotted the 26-year-old suspect
the next day and pummeled him before police arrived.
A judge on Monday ordered Carrasquillo to stand trial on
charges related to both girls.
