Charles Abraham Cocklin II’s attorney, John Schum, says guards ignored Cocklin as he pounded on his Oahu Community Correctional Center cell doors while his cellmate hung for about 12 hours.

KITV-TV reports that Judge Richard Perkins appointed three mental health experts to examine Cocklin, two of whom concluded that he was faking mental illness. Perkins set Cocklin’s trial for February.

Cocklin is accused of assaulting a prostitute and threatening another woman who refused to work for him.

His cellmate, former prison guard Danier Webster, hung himself with a sheet in May while awaiting trial for bank robbery.
