New York- male who tortured and killed toddler moved to women's prison

An individual in prison for...

Extract

...torturing and killing a 4 year-old boy has been quietly transferred to a women’s prison in New York state. Christopher “Kryzie” King was serving a sentence of 22 years to life in Clinton Correctional Facility until April 20, when King was relocated to the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility for Women.

King pleaded guilty to abusing and murdering 4-year-old Myls Dobson in 2014. The child had been left in King's care after his father, Okee Wade, was arrested.

Myls had been removed from the custody of his abusive mother, Ashlee Dobson, in 2012 and placed with his father despite Wade’s long history of incarceration and sexual assault. The city’s Administration for Child Services only monitored Myls for a year before closing his case in late 2012, just months before his father would be detained on charges of bank fraud.

Wade left Myls with King, though he would later claim he didn’t know the transgender ‘babysitter’ at all.

I'm not copying the rest, because what was done to Myls is too horrific for me to place here. Read at your own risk.

I have edited the section above to remove pronouns because I don't know whether MN allows me to use sex-based pronouns for male babysitters who torture and starve toddlers. I thought it best to err on the side of caution.

Holy shit - it just never stops.

Why people can't see right through this bullshit is beyond me

Actually, all of those who enable this bullshit probably can see right through it, but they don't care because they don't give a shit about women.

The failings of authorities to safeguard in this case just pile up and up. The little boy was utterly failed, but instead of looking at what has already gone wrong, they're digging in deeper by putting this violent, sadistic man in with women. Breathtaking arrogance and callousness.

WHAT????

Also:

During his sentencing in 2016, King’s lawyer, Bryan Konoski, speaking on his behalf, told the judge that he was concerned that the New York State Department of Correctional Services would force him to cut his hair.

“[His] hair is very important to [his] identity as a transgender individual,” he said. “[He] asks that the corrections department refrain from cutting [his] hair.” Myls Dobson’s family expressed outrage at the request.

Again....WHAT?!

Again, I'm not going to copy and paste the information on how he deliberately tortured and killed a little boy through neglect in just three weeks, but having read it, I don't care how much King values having long hair.

During [King's] sentencing in 2016, King’s lawyer, Bryan Konoski, speaking on [King's] behalf, told the judge that [King] was concerned that the New York State Department of Correctional Services would force [King] to cut [King's] hair.

“[His] hair is very important to [his] identity as a transgender individual,” he said. “[He] asks that the corrections department refrain from cutting [his] hair.” Myls Dobson’s family expressed outrage at the request.

Despite what King did to Myls, King retains the right to regular meals and physical safety, and King should be grateful to receive that. It's more than Myls got.

Cross-post. None of us can stand the insult of this sick male person demanding special privileges after what King did to that poor little boy.

I have no words. This just makes me feel sick

That article is horrendous - I couldn't read it

WTF is wrong with some people? And WTF is wrong with the US to put this monster in a women's prison? He should be in solitary confinement for life.

The US clearly has no respect for women. They are eroding women's rights on a daily basis. It must be awful for those women who are facing being incarcerated with a male sadist. And for those who are facing being able to access a safe, legal termination.

One state wants to ban the morning-after pill and IUDs now.

Sickening

So he, Christopher, has been released from jail.

How was the conviction entered? For Christopher or Kryzie? Who was convicted? Does the other one have a case for wrongful incarceration?

Given they have different names, different prisoner record numbers and registered sex. The only thing they seem to share, legally, is a date of birth.

So... seriously, how the fuck does that ever seem sensible to anyone?

And that's without having to wade through the sickening list of violent acts committed.

Post truth, post logic, post fucking caring for anything but the emotions of people who value the length of a haircut over a human life!

It doesn’t take a lot of thought to see where this whole train could be headed in the US.

• Lock intact male prisoners up in the female estate.
• Prevent the women there from complaining, by sanctioning them if they do.
• Remove their access to birth control and then stop them being able to access abortion services.
• Force the women to carry to term and then take the child off them (after all, the State will argue, as incarcerated “felons” they’re obviously not able to be fit mothers).

Result:

Fill the “domestic shortfall” of infants required for adoption by white middle class infertile couples - as identified by the Supreme Court - whilst the State and private adoption agencies coin it in at 70k a pop.

And for bonus points, you’ve been able to demonstrate how “progressive” you’ve been in validating the feelz of convicted abusers and allowing them to live their very best and most authentic life. 🙄
