Man gets 17 years for rape of girl, 13

Clincy David

Following the presentation of probation and other social impact reports, construction worker Clincy David, 45, was last Friday sentenced to 17 years behind bars for raping a 13-year-old girl two years ago.

Back in April, a 12-member panel unanimously convicted David on the first count of attempting to rape the teen on April 8th, 2020 and on the second count of sexually penetrating her on July 13th, 2020.

At a pre-sentencing hearing two weeks ago, the courtroom of Justice Priya Sewnarine-Beharry heard from a victim impact statement of the young lady who related her relief that David had been found guilty, but lamented that what he has done to her continues to have distressing effects.
