A rapist whose victims included "Top Gun" actress Kelly McGillis got taxpayer-funded Viagra for years, despite his fiendish history, it was revealed yesterday as he was sentenced to 50 years in prison.
Serial sex predator Leroy Johnson was prescribed the erectile dysfunction pill by doctors at the Bronx-based Fordham-Tremont Community Mental Health Center from early 2003 to mid-2005, according to court records.
The health center stopped doling out the little blue pills to Johnson only after new DNA tests linked him to a 1996 knife-point double rape - bringing his total number of rape victims to five.
Center officials didn't return calls; Johnson's extensive sex crime history would have been available to doctors when they began seeing him in 2002. Johnson, arrested for the 1996 rapes last year, was convicted June 13.
The health center's Viagra-for-a-rapist treatment plan came to light yesterday as he was slapped with the max for the rapes - and as his two victims gave wrenching accounts of the emotional fallout.
"The person I was is gone. I mourn the loss of her every single day," said one of the women attacked in their shared Greenwich Village apartment…"I will go through the whole of my life never knowing who I was going to be."

Johnson's first rape was at age 13. As a 15-year-old crackhead and juvenile-jail escapee, he and an accomplice forced their way into McGillis' Upper West Side apartment, raping both the young actress and her roommate at knifepoint.
Freed on that rape by 1989, Johnson attacked a Midtown nurse he was supposed to be protecting while snatching a purse on his first day of a security job.

Nice try, but I'm not buying it. Your post insinuated that the question was improper, not because it was off topic, but because there was something inherently "wrong" with asking it. If your point was that the post was irrelevant, you need only have said so. But you threw in some rubbish about "equal opportunity" evil, and, to emotionally further your argument (I suppose), a "sheesh." Oh the humanity! What sort of animal might even ask such a question?
Your knee-jerk reaction was correct: you are a morally superior being, and I am just a Neanderthal, mouth breathing, knuckle dragging, racist, sexist, bigoted, homophobic white male destroyer of the environment and plunderer of indigenous peoples.
Why does the government think that this is a necessity? I have NEVER heard of anyone dying from not having sex.
"Yeah, and there IS a profile, believe it or not. Odds are he was a victim of molestation himself."
Possibly, either way I hope he gets raped in prison, by someone with AIDS.
NOW THAT WOULD BE JUSTICE
I do.
