(In 2022, Judge Netburn ordered the controversial transfer of an incarcerated 6’2” male child rapist, William McClain, to a federal women’s prison - overturning the Federal Bureau of Prison’s (BOP) decision. )
On April 30th, President Biden nominated the Hon. Judge Sarah Netburn, a New York magistrate judge for 12 years, to be confirmed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Her lifetime nomination posed a severe threat to the safety of women and girls in custody due to her staunch support for “gender identity” self-ID prison policies.
Judge Netburn’s nomination has failed in committee. Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) courageously broke party ranks to vote against her lifetime confirmation. Sen. Ossoff was the only Democrat to join Republicans’ opposition - and he is the first Democratic senator to vote against a Biden nominee in committee.
Before the nomination hearing on May 22nd, an avalanche of WoLF supporters contacted the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Chief Counsels for Nomination and expressed serious concerns about her nomination for a lifetime appointment. This victory is thanks to those dedicated WoLF supporters who took the time to contact the Senate Judiciary Committee this past May!
