A murderer who stabbed a young dad to death in Greenwich has been given further jail time for assaulting guards in prison.
Serving prisoner Jordan Bailey-Mascoll, of The Brent in Dartford, was convicted after a two-day trial of four assaults on a prison officer at HMP Long Lartin, Worcestershire, on September 23, 2021.
The 30-year-old was jailed for a further year on top of the minimum life term of 35 years which he is already serving.
Bailey-Mascoll made headlines in 2018 when he was jailed for murdering Danny Pearce, a 31-year-old from Bromley.
Mr Pearce was walking with his girlfriend and two friends to a parked car in King William Walk after leaving a Jazz Club in Nevada Street shortly after midnight on July 15, 2017.
Bailey-Mascoll and his accomplice, 24-year-old David Egan, approached Mr Pearce and told him to hand over his Rolex watch. When Mr Pearce refused he was chased before being repeatedly stabbed.
Mr Pearce, who had a young daughter, died at the scene.
Investigating officer Detective Inspector Jo Sidaway said: "The level of violence used against Danny was truly horrendous and the length of time over which they carried out the attack - up to two minutes - marks it out as the most sustained random stabbing attack I've seen in my 26 years in the police service."
Last year, in the early hearings of his case for assaulting guards, Bailey-Mascoll was vile to a court clerk after she had asked him to take his feet off a desk during a videolink.
After ignoring the court clerk's request a prison officer entered the booth where the videolink was taking place and also asked him.
There were heated exchanges between the pair as Bailey-Mascoll said: "It has nothing to do with you."
