How Many More Years Behind Bars for Mason?

Convicted kidnapper and murderer William “Danny” Mason is expected to be sentenced on Thursday. He will find out how many more years he’ll spend behind bars.

Mason, who is already serving a life sentence for the brutal 2016 murder of Dangriga pastor Llewellyn Lucas, was back before the High Court earlier this week for sentencing on two counts of kidnapping. In May 2025, he was found guilty of abducting Mennonite couple Lloyd and Rosie Friesen.

Justice Nigel Pilgrim explained that he needs more time to consider the special circumstances of the case before handing down his decision.

Mason and his attorney, Peter Taylor, appeared alone for mitigation pleas on June 30 after no family members or supporters came forward to speak on his behalf. Mason says he will appeal the kidnapping conviction.
