'A trans woman has been jailed for six and a half years after being found guilty of rape following a night out.
Lexi Secker raped a woman in Blunsdon, Wiltshire, on 23 April 2023. The attack took place before Secker began identifying as a woman.
The attack took place in secluded woods after the pair took a walk "under the pretence of sobering up".
Secker, 35, of Lowbourne, near Melksham, has been ordered to carry out her sentence in a male prison and will remain on the sex offenders register indefinitely.
Throughout the sentencing hearing, barristers and the judge referred to the defendant as "Ms Secker" and "she".
However, in a victim personal statement, the woman raped by Secker used the name "Alex" to describe her attacker.
She said: "He took away my trust in people and myself. The assault consumed me with shame and fear."
The woman, who attended court in person to see Secker sentenced, added she had experienced "unbearable anxiety, shame and fear" since the attack.'

Fuck every single barrister and judge that colluded in this utter pish. This not a woman in any shape or form.

I can't imagine how his victim felt hearing the court pandering to his bullshit.

Flowers to her, brave woman.

Lexi Secker, rapist, and his pronouns

There should be an investigation into the BBC's bias on these issues.

Lisa Nandy, unfortunately, is not going to even think about that for a moment, because she shares the same bias.

The BBC seems unable to accept that there might be more to the trans issue than puff pieces promoting drag queens and middle-aged men in dodgy wigs crying about being misgendered. The bigger, darker and more profound story – that perverts with criminal intentions are dressing up as human-rights activists – gets no attention from the BBC. But it is worth asking who benefits when men are free to identify into women-only spaces? Who benefits from the argument that children can consent to medical interventions that affect the rest of their lives? Who benefits from arresting the physical development of children? The BBC’s refusal to even acknowledge, let alone ask, these inconvenient questions is starting to look a lot like deeply ingrained bias.

Nails it. Well said, Jo!

You remove the lenient sentences for being trans and then you see the amount of trans identified offenders drop massively.

YouTube should remove his channel as it was part of his grift to avoid jail time.

MissScarletInTheBallroom · 29/09/2024 16:46

Well done to her for putting herself through the trauma of a rape trial, and for not letting herself be bullied into referring to him as a woman.

I posted a Telegraph article about this in the It will never happen thread. The extra information on the judge does concern me regarding sentencing

especially as the judge being quoted here

+ + The judge said he was sentencing Secker “with regard to how difficult a prison sentence in a male institution will be for you”. + +

Did he reduce the sentence because Secker claimed to be trans? I'm struggling to see any other interpretation to that comment.

Yes, that struck me too and it's exactly what I concluded/

So it appears that after the rape he created this trans persona, creating videos on YouTube and being vocal on social media, for what I assume as evidence to assist his defence in his criminal trial.

Probably even worse for activists that now it is seen that people become activists to try to avoid (or lessen) criminal proceedings.

You have to wonder if someone is giving these people advice on how to escape justice and that currently creating a trans persona is one way to do it.

At the very least the fact that articles are published with this false name prevents people doing very basic background checks on the guy.

There have been several cases where a man who claims to be trans has had a more.lenient sentence or avoided a prison sentence altogether because 'male prison would be hard'.

So it would make sense to give it a try if one was facing jail. And yes there is also the attempt to 'kill off' the previous persona, history, and name.

If referring to the rapist I imagine it would be more natural to say "he got convicted". "Got a conviction" generally refers to the other side.

@LakelandDreams I WAS REFERRING TO THE VICTIM. The only "she" in this story. I've been told off once already on this thread by another poster, I don't need it again. It's your assumption that I'm referring to the pos rapist that's the issue here. Language has been so successfully "queered" that people not longer understand basic English grammar.

My apologies. I genuinely thought you meant the rapist.

Quite. Glad that she got a conviction given so very few do. The BBC article also states that the crime will be recorded as being committed by a male, as it absolutely should be.

He got a conviction. Your refusal to use his correct pronouns here is as offensive to the victim as the judge and barristers.

The people going along with the female pronouns are doing a performative display of patriarchal dominance because only in a patriarchy could a rapist man get everyone to pretend he was a woman.

Yes, exactly that. Court cannot and should not be a place to enable men to play games at the expense of women.

Absolutely this.

When Andrew Burns said he was now called 'Obi Wan Kenobi' it was reported in scare quotes and didn't seem to be taken seriously.

When he said he was now called 'Tiffany Scott' they moved him to a women's prison.

His piss raking was ignored. His desire to terrorise.women was respected.

Clarification: Burns was due to be moved to Cornton Vale but SPS backtracked after outcry - this article suggests that included prison staff.

Tiffany Scott HAD been cleared to move to women's jail despite Keith Brown claim

A prison source said that the violent trans offender, formerly known as Andrew Burns, was preparing to leave Low Moss in Glasgow, to be sent to a woman's prison like Cornton Vale in Stirling.

A bit of makeup and a dress doesn't make a man a woman.
He's a rapist.

Datun · 29/09/2024 07:08

Bloody hell. Absolutely unhinged.

Many of Secker’s video essays were centered around condemning classic horror films which played on the tropes of crossdressing villains

Ironic.

This.

Including the judge.

It's a massive, deliberate insult to women everywhere.

I always feel very suspicious of judges who become notorious for consistently giving sex offenders lenient sentences. Such judges should be investigated themselves to find out why they are sympathetic to such bestial creatures.

Quite. My first thought was, 'I'll bet he has an interesting hard drive...'

WandsOut · 28/09/2024 21:31

His pronouns are "Rapist Bastard"

And the pronouns of all who sat in the court referring to him as a woman are "Rapist Enablers"

I imagine this rapist will suddenly and magically, 'become' a man again on his way to the male prison.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Because it would take that last step - which will have to come - into being clear with the world that calling someone by chosen rather than sex based pronouns is an honorific, a gesture of indulgence, that is not an entitlement.

Edited

Police Scotland have just made this step.

I don't understand why news organisations can't have a policy of "We'll call trans women by their chosen pronouns unless they use their penises to rape somebody". Literally only lunatics would disagree with that policy.
