Female prisoner prosecuted for misgendering trans murderer

[RoyalCorgi]

I don't know if there has been a thread on this before - if so, I missed it. I only just came across this on Twitter.

Greenock Prison in Scotland has a female wing. One of the prisoners is a male-to-female trans person, serving a sentence for murder, who used to be called Alan Baker but now uses the name Alexandria Stewart.

A female prisoner called Jane Sutherley, serving a sentence for culpable homicide, is alleged to have carried out a "four year campaign of abuse" against Stewart, apparently using he and him pronouns and referring to Stewart as "the tranny".

Sutherley is now being tried for behaving in a “threatening and abusive manner”, aggravated by “transgender prejudice”. The case has been adjourned until May apparently.

I imagine the architects of the Scottish Enlightenment are spinning in their graves.

This is why there should be no males in female jails, I hope Jane Sutherley wins, because it should never have come to trail in the first place.

I did start a thread

Scotland, no surprise. The level of male violence towards women is out of control here but. hey ho, let's prosecute a woman for a bit of name calling and correctly sexing a man who shouldn't be in a female prison in the first place.
