It never happens. Ever.

I bet everyone can see the massive twist coming:

He.

Anthony is an odd name for a woman?

This is precisely why crime data should not be recorded in ‘gender identity’ but natal sex.

Will this be recorded as an offence by a woman and then used later to 'prove' that women are just as likely to display male pattern crimes as men?

Will this be recorded as an offence by a woman and then used later to 'prove' that women are just as likely to display male pattern crimes as men?

This is the terrible reality isn’t it?

To be recorded as a 'female' crime no doubt.

Cross posted.

What is the legal definition of ‘woman’?

Oh and the whole ‘I feel like a woman’ is surely shite because the ratio of man:woman sex offenders /paedophiles is pretty definite - it’s mostly a MAN thing.

If his legal name is Anthony, how is he transgender and a woman? Why is the media colluding in this falsehoods? He is a man. Engaging in a typical male sex crime. It is a form of group libel to describe him as a woman. Women do not do this.

Sent this email to the writer of the story.

Dear Ms Marshall
in relation to this story www.thestar.co.uk/news/crime/sheffield-woman-found-with-over-1000-indecent-images-of-children-hauled-before-the-court-477960
why are you referring to this individual as a woman? Does he have a GRC? Is he a transsexual? How is he a woman, and why do you use female pronouns to refer to him and call him a woman? How is he a woman? What a read about is a male committing a male crime. Have you heard of lots of female pedophiles downloading child porn? I have not. Please stop libeling women as a group and report facts accurately. I therefore ask that you publish proof of how this man is a woman (keeping in mind self ID is not the law in the UK) or you publish a correction to this article, correcting identifying this man as a man. What he is.
Kind regards

I wouldn’t hold your breath but at least they did use their real name. I’m fed up of seeing ‘Mary from Dundee’ accompanied by a photo of a fat bearded bloke with male patterned baldness and a mullet.

I suspect the number of women who claim to deal with CSA trauma by downloading thousands of images of child rape is vanishingly small

It's not just the newspaper report that uses female pronouns, it's everyone involved in the court case, including the prosecutor and the judge.

The judge to the perp on delaying sentencing:

I know this is four more difficult days for you, but I hope you understand why I’m doing this.

FOR FUCKS SAKE

Dear Consumer of Child Rape Material, I'm so sorry your right to a speedy trial has been affected. I hope you're not too upset by it, you poor thing. Lots of love, the Judge.

Dear Abused Children, I'm really not that bothered about you or the fact this person has been free to find more images of more abused children for the last several years. So I won't mention you at all. No love whatsoever, the Judge.

And what the hell is going on here?

As he released Prince on bail until Friday’s hearing, Judge Kelson told her: “Ms Prince, you have been subject to shocking delays, and I’m now creating a further four-day delay before sentencing you, but I need more help. Your offences are very serious, you know that...if I had sentenced you today, I would have sent you to prison...I’m not threatening you, and I’m not saying what your sentence will be on Friday.

“I know this is four more difficult days for you, but I hope you understand why I’m doing this.”

This is a man who has been convicted of serious sex offences, and the judge appears to be apologising to him.

South Yorkshire Police.
Quel surprise.

Will this be recorded as an offence by a woman and then used later to 'prove' that women are just as likely to display male pattern crimes as men?

I read the link and thought this must be an MRA thread to "prove" women do it too. Of course it turns out that it's "men do it again and again and again and again, sometimes whilst claiming to be women".

Can't believe those pronouns in the article - HE, HIM, HIS. We use them to spot the potential predators amongst us.

Now looking forward to the pro-trans FWR lobby coming on here to advocate for this perp to spend his sentence in a women's jail.

(Thank you Mumsnet for allowing us to call at least some MTF trans what they are - men)

"Ms. Prince". Fuck you Judge Kelson. Ms is an honorific for women.

This is a man who has been convicted of serious sex offences, and the judge appears to be apologising to him.

Yes because he’s special

South Yorkshire Police

Because of their failings Anthony is unlikely to go to prison by the sounds of it.

I imagine the judge is trying to appeal-proof his sentence, but describing the delay in getting to Court as "torture" is pretty fucking outrageous when this repulsive individual liked to get his jollies looking at little children being raped.

And the judge doesn't have much choice about pronouns. They've all been ordered to use preferred pronouns on pain of a wigging from the JCIO.

He'd have such a difficult time in the men's prison, actually being a "lady". Better not send him down at all then.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr.
