Brit Charged With Trying to Buy 12yo Girl Suing Jail Over Spoiled Mayonnaise, Missing Coffee & Illicit Cup

The Will County jail is apparently lacking in the finer pleasures, at least according to a lawsuit filed by an Englishman charged with trying to buy a 12-year-old girl for sex off Craigslist.

Charles Bocock, 36, filed a small claims case against jail Commissary Supervisor Jorja Sheridan. The alleged aspiring pedophile accused Sheridan of selling him 12 packets of spoiled mayonnaise, an empty packet of coffee and a white commissary cup that is not allowed in the jail.

All of these alleged transgressions are worth $302.40 to Bocock, including $100 for "pain and suffering," in addition to his "time to bring this suit, 4 hours @ $50=$200."

Bocock allegedly wanted to have sex with a girl younger than 11 but settled for a 12-year-old he believed he found on Craigslist.

He allegedly responded to a Craigslist advertisement posted by a Plainfield resident hoping to get money for his car payment. In exchange for the money, Bocock wanted a girl for sex, officials said.

The Plainfield resident went to the police and an investigator pretending to be the cash-strapped Craigslist poster continued the online conversation with Bocock, officials said. The investigator reportedly offered Bocock his 12-year-old niece for the car payment money, and a rendezvous was set up at a Dunkin' Donuts on Route 59.

After Bocock was taken into custody, police searched his Chicago home and found "numerous" images of child pornography, a prosecutor said during a court hearing in June.

Bocock has sued jail staff before. In October, he and fellow inmate Jason Gonzalez, who is awaiting trial on charges he murdered his uncle, filed suit against jail Warden Michael O'Leary and sheriff's department Deputy Chief Brian Fink.

In their lawsuit, Bocock and Gonzalez took issue with the lack of "barber and beautician services" provided at the jail, the times meals are served, the prices of commissary merchandise, and the size of bath towels.

That lawsuit is pending. Gonzalez, 27, has launched other court actions independent of Bocock.
