Drug convict Dwayne King, who was wounded in the Camp Street Prison, testified in court yesterday that the accused Calvin Bailey had wanted to kill him “long”.
In the courtroom of Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan, Bailey, stood charged with unlawfully and maliciously wounding King on November 6, in the prison. He was unrepresented. Bailey is in prison on a charge of murder.
King told the court that on the day of the attack, he and the defendant were in the new wing of the prison, when Bailey, who was armed with a knife, attacked him. The complainant said he was on his bed, when he noticed Bailey, who was arguing, leave his bed and walk to the door where he collected something from another inmate.
