An 18-year-old woman accused of pretending to be twin 12-year-old boys and simultaneously dating two adolescent girls will undergo a psychiatric evaluation to determine her competency to stand trial in San Mateo County Superior Court. Lakesia Michelle Mason pleaded not guilty in March to 13 counts of lewd acts upon a child under the age of 14 for her alleged relationships with a 13-year-old girl and an 11-year-old girl.
She denied the special allegations of substantial sexual conduct with a child under the age of 14 and allegations that the offenses were committed in more than one jurisdiction and that the crimes were serious felonies. Mason also pleaded not guilty to providing marijuana to a minor. The alleged crimes took place in San Francisco and Daly City.
Today in court, Mason's defense attorney raised questions about Mason's competency to stand trial for the alleged crimes.
According to the state penal code, a person cannot be tried or punished for a crime while that person is mentally incompetent.
Superior Court Judge Craig Parsons today assigned Mason to undergo a psychiatric evaluation by two court-appointed doctors. Criminal proceedings against Mason are suspended pending the outcome of those reports.

Ignoring the rest of the weirdness, one has to assume that "dating" is a euphemism for a whole lot more.
An 18-year-old woman accused of pretending to be twin 12-year-old boys and simultaneously dating two adolescent girls will undergo a psychiatric evaluation to determine her competency to stand trial in San Mateo County Superior Court.
Why should "she" undergo a psychiatric evaluation? "She's" engaged in a branch of homosexuality and homosexuality was removed from the DSM. "She" should be automatically considered competent to stand trial. Isn't that right, APA?
What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, or something like that.
Actually, it would be more appropriate to say - they've made their bed, let them lie in it.
Either it's perfectly normal and natural, or they're sick in the head. Can't have it both ways, whichever suits their purpose at the moment.
Precisely!
But we're talking about twins here, aren't we?
We're talking about sick freaks, one, two or whatever!
This is bizarre and they should throw the book at her.
And I'm shocked that the term "lewd acts" has apparently been defined legally in San Francisco and is against the law.
I think I saw this in the San Franciso guide to dating etiquette!
Wouldn't the jig have been up once they discovered the outie was an innie?
Wasn't this a plot on Desperate House-Pervs?
What kind of parent would allow their 11 or 13 year old daughter to date?
Hey, they sell strap-ons. After a few doobies who'd notice?
Wait... What??
She "introduced" the 13-year-old to her own alter ego? How'd she accomplish that?
"And I'm shocked that the term "lewd acts" has apparently been defined legally in San Francisco and is against the law."
Actually, they just define it differently. In San Francisco, 'lewd acts' might mean making the sign of the cross where someone might see you and be offended, or contibuting to the Boy Scouts (unless you're hitting on one) or casting a hostile glance toward a homeless person who's defecating on a sidewalk. They do, after all, have their standards.
Reminds me of a funny story (funny to me at least) -- I once had to go to a local pizza place on a Friday night to retreive my neice and 2 of her friends and return them to my sister's place. When I walked into the lobby of my sis's building, I mentioned to the doorman that I could't get a date with a 39 year old, so I got 3 - 13 year olds instead. We laughed and laughed ... :)
nodody can accuse her of being "heternormative".
only in EuroFrisco.
