Lakeric McCaskill Had Gun In His Hospital Room, Said He'd Been "Left For Dead" By A Rival Gang Member...

Who brings a gun to the hospital? Well, if you've been assaulted and left for dead by a rival gang member, it probably seems like a good idea. Click here for the criminal complaint against Lakeric McCaskill.

The gun incident happened in early October at North Memorial Medical Center in Robbinsdale, when hospital security searched McCaskill's room because it smelled like cigarette smoke. Here's words to live by...

If you're going to keep firearms in your hospital room, then don't be breaking other rules like smoking in your room.

Looking for nothing more than a pack of Newports (I strongly suspect they expected to find NEWPORTS) police turned up a Masterpiece Arms 9 mill with 20 rounds, one in the chamber. The gun was in a brown paper bag near the heating register, 5 feet from the bed.

After finding the bag, as per proper hospital procedures, hospital staff marked the bag with the patient's name.

McCaskill said he had the gun because he'd been beaten and left for dead by a rival gang member and feared for his life. He was convicted of burglary in 2001 and is ineligible to possess firearms. We all see how well that law is being enforced.

McCaski;l's home address is 11946 South Michigan Ave., Chicago. He fits the usual pattern of no accounts from Chicago who come to Minnesota and commit crimes.

The reason JNS blog looked into this incident after seeing McCaskill's name on the jail roster is because "McCaskill" is a surname linked to the Ferguson Crime Family, one of half a dozen or so known and named North Minneapolis crime families. The name in question appears as "McCaskill," "Slaughter-McCaskill" and "Slaughter." According to a JNS source, one of two patriarchs of the Ferguson crime family is James Leon Ferguson, who is locked away for life in prison on a murder charge. (There is apparently a "McCaskel" spelling variant, as well)

In this incident, Lakeric said the weapon had been brought to the hospital by a "friend or family member."

OK, I see the Facebook link you posted and I went and looked at it.

"Mikaveli McCaskill."

Are you saying this is the same guy as Lakeric McCaskill or just a related McCaskill? Or a McCaskill with the same name?

Johnny Northside! said...

Look at that. It's "McCaskill" in the criminal complaint and court records, but I'm seeing "McCaskel" all over Facebook.

A spelling variant. Yet another layer to strip away.

Anonymous said...

Four cases, three different name variants and the same DOB. Talk about some janky official records there!

Johnny Northside! said...

Here's what's even more amazing. A whole BUNCH of the McCaskills are using the McCaskell spelling variant on Facebook. It appears to be coordinated activity.

"Appellant Jackson and several of his friends attended the same party. The night of the party, Michael Earl McCaskel picked up Jackson, Alaiena Charlton, Alonna Charlton, and Nakeisha Ferguson and drove them to the party in his Bronco. Witnesses testified that all of these individuals were associated with the Bloods gang. On the way to the party, McCaskel stopped to pick up Martise Bowie, who was also associated with the Bloods. At Bowie's request, McCaskel made another stop at an alley near 38th Street and Chicago Avenue so Bowie could retrieve a gun. Alonna Charlton identified the gun as a "38 Western Silver" revolver."

McCaskill's And McCaskel are two different family's, you dumb ass.

Johnny Northside! said...

As near as I can determine, it is a spelling variant and not an entirely different family. If you can prove your assertion, I'm listening and open to whatever facts you care to cite.

Johnny Northside! said...

Oh, and by the way, on the topic of who is a dumbass...

Families. Plural. Not "family's" with an apostrophe.

Smoke much dope in Fourth Grade?

Johnny Northside said...

Lakeric, if this is you...

The article is primarily based upon the police complaint, and is written up in terms of what ALLEGATIONS the police have made. As for comments made by others, I am not responsible for them. It is more or less an open forum.

If you think untrue things are being stated, or if there are facts you wish to state to the public, this is your opportunity to do it.

Johnny Northside said...

You know what's the most amusing? How you literally can't SPELL the word "retarded."

You just not gone stop with the bullshit are you? Half of everything u say is a lie. did the papers you read mention im a straight a student in college that was on the honor roll and I volunteer 4 days a week for at risk youth? No? I wonder why? Or did it mention the other 4 cases like this one I eiither beat or.had thrown out? You one of the many people who have the luxury of believing whatever they hear.

And I had 2 bails. A fed and state. Not to mention I dont live a life of crime anymore so any bail is high. Im on a $100,000 and $10,000.

If anyone takes one second to think and stop letting people control your thoughts u would realize this whole situation is bull.

Johnny Northside! said...

Oh. So I should listen to YOU about what's true or alleged to be true instead of the Hennepin County Attorney?

Thanks. I think I'll stick to credible sources. But, again, say what you feel like saying all about the situation. You have a forum here and you can say what you want to say about yourself and, for that matter, your family.

Johnny Northside! said...

No, Lakeric, if this is you, I do not care to call you and record you. You are not worth that kind of time and effort to me.

However, if you would like to write out your side of the story, in detail, and email it to me at hoffjohnw@gmail.com I will commit to publishing it, as is, with little or no commentary by me. Just something along the lines of here's Lakeric telling his side of the story.

Be sure it's from an email I can identify with you so we know it's really from you. If you can, scan copies of court documents if you want to share documents.

This offer is not special to you. This kind of offer is pretty much open to all the thugs (alleged thugs) that I write about but very few take me up on the offer.

Johnny Northside said...

You want me to spell it out for you? You are a criminal dirt bag (if you are who you claim to be) and I prefer to have as little contact as possible with you. I do not care to talk to you on the phone, record you, or write down what was said which requires effort on my part and little effort on your part, since I imagine you spend a great deal of your life simply TALKING about yourself.

Writing about the criminal charges against you was not my request to socialize with you. Indeed, it was not written FOR YOU but for the other 99.99 percent of my readership who are NOT Lakeric McCaskill or somebody claiming to be Lakeric McCaskill.

I'm happy to keep a computer screen between our two worlds and not even hear your voice. I'm even happier not to spend my time talking to you, then have to spend even more time trying to write down whatever you said ; almost certainly a litany of lies, excuses, justifications and airy statements of how you are "just starting to turn your life around." You may not like me stating these things but welcome to the point of view the decent, law-abiding citizens of the world have about you.

If you want your side of things published for the world to read, either submit comments here or email me. Otherwise I suggest you prepare for your coming trial and enjoy your freedom while you still have it.

I'm not suggesting you jump bail or anything but I'm just SAYING there are buses leaving for Chicago every day.
