The claim is the first public reference to trans women assaulting prison staff in women’s jails, but it follows warnings that allowing malebodied criminals into female jails puts women in danger.
It was reported last year there are up to 1,500 inmates who describe themselves as transgender among the 90,000 prisoners in England and Wales – raising concerns that some are claiming to be trans to get access to women’s jails.
In 2018, a transgender inmate was found to have sexually assaulted women in a female prison.
Karen White, born Stephen Wood, had been sent to HMP New Hall near Wakefield, West Yorkshire, despite having had neither surgery nor hormone treatment – and despite being a convicted paedophile on remand for grievous bodily harm, multiple rapes and other sexual offences against women.

Liberals are shocked! Who could have foreseen this?
A criminal lied about being transgender! Can anyone imagine such a thing????
Re: Karen White/Stephen Wood – “despite having had neither surgery nor hormone treatment – and despite being a convicted paedophile on remand for grievous bodily harm, multiple rapes and other sexual offences against women.”
I’m sorry, but I started to laugh at the complete absurdity. This is the land that gave us Monty Python and even the Ministry of Silly Walks.
Nothing that quick, decisive, and permanent surgery couldn’t modify for dear Stephen – followed by a life of solitary confinement of course.
Dear Stephen is just playin’ the hand he was dealt. The dealer is the person who needs the adjustment.
Oh my, non-Covid news, next thing you tell me is that Krakatoa is erupting or Chernobyl is burning.
I suppose as the virus fades from our attention, other suppressed agendas will surface.
In terms of this horrific story, the workers in UK government will never acknowledge wrong doing. The social cost will be deemed “acceptable”. Look at the grooming gangs and the treatment of the whistleblowers. The UK is lost. Canada isn’t far behind.
The next thing you’ll tell me is the climate is changing.
There are still the Swedes. They are stupider than the English but the English get honourable mention. So afraid of being labeled racist or sexist that they take racism or sexism to the extreme. Putting rapists in women’s prisons is the ugliest form of sexism.
Why does Stossels fine quote come to mind?
“There is nothing about a pedophile that 40 000 Volts will not fix”.
Any modifiers before justice can rightly be changed to “In”.
Social Justice=Injustice.
That said when we allow the stupid and useless to occupy positions of authority,we get what we are asking for.
You can make a donkey sheriff,how ever it will still be a donkey.
Ditto,there is no cure for stupid,does not mean you let them drive your bus.
The only solution is to ensure those promoting madness,suffer it good and hard.
Judges get to house the maniacs they release and Prison officials/parole nitwits get to share a cell with their favourites..
Of course the whole institution of incarceration is insane.
Perhaps if you are too vile,crazy or evil to be loose in society, just perhaps..you might be too vile,crazy evil to live?
Why are we carrying the enormous cost of these institutions when they benefit no taxpayer?
Same offenders over and over again?
Cops routinely check their “register of sex offenders” when investigating missing women and children?
Seems to me we are protecting and promoting the perverts,protecting the destroyers and encouraging the shiftless..
Prisons..
We are now one big prison,huddle in your homes as we release the poor wee crims..
Translation?
You are all criminals in the minds of our Dear Leaders.
You can make a donkey sheriff,how ever it will still be a donkey.
This country elected half of a horse as prime minister and he turned out to be a genius with his leadership. (sarcasm = off)
John….There is more than just a passing thought on what you lastly wrote…
I do recall on the Joe Green Show (radio), He was interviewing a Canada Corrections Officer (female – can’t be sure if Biologicaly…but for the sake of argument, we’ll say yea, she was “normal”.)
At one point she came out and Described those folks who happened to live in any certain Area in any certain city as:
“non convicted individuals residing in the Community”
This was back in 2006 or so. I am quite certain we are all, seen that way by anyone wearing a Peace Officer Uniform. Its borne of utter condescension and Arrogance – a MOstly Liberal TRAIT.
Thanks Steakman,that was the exact quote,I was thinking of,but I could not remember her choice of words.
steakman, with onset of the deadliest virus ever on the face of the earth, we have not only “all” become criminals we are “all” locked up, down, sideways, forced out of our jobs and are treated in some cases worse than criminals who really are criminals.
Liberals do not care about raped women or children. Obviously.
Liberals in the UK describe child rape gangs as “grooming gangs” in order to soften their image, the rapists are described as “South Asian” in order to avoid describing them correctly as Muslim men, the victims are described as “white trash” by mainstream media like the Washington Post in order to make their audience less sympathetic to them.
Liberals even offer up their own children to perverts who read and do other things to them just so that these liberal parents can feel self righteous.
Liberal voters do not care about victims.
The issue is not trans-women raping other women.
The issue that some women and some men allowed men to be considered women.
I have zero (as in 0) sympathy to anyone in the UK. They have voted for all of this, and not only voted, but welcomed this overwhelmingly.
I had an ex-Londoner boss a long time ago. He hated my guts because when he told everyone that he came from the UK, I asked if he came to Canada to ruin it, after ruining the Great Britain.
I already had a job offer from elsewhere.
Well, duh.
OTOH, when I was young and callow, my boss’s boss’s boss, in whose presence normal employees quaked, sat down in a lunch time game of bridge as a substitute for my usual partner. I became declarer this one hand, the opening lead was made, and he put down the dummy. Whereupon I blurted out, “with a hand like that, only an idiot would bid one no trump.”
That blurt was famously quoted throughout the division, and led to the wild rumor that I was independently rich. Not only was that not true, unlike you, I didn’t even have an outstanding job offer. Interestingly enough, I still had another job, but was smart enough to go out an find another one.
Tararam Bam Bam, I assure you WE did not VOTE for any of this shit.
The vast majority of the people in the UK are sane, rational and small ‘c’ conservative, but like many other countries, the left have quietly infiltrated our institutions/political parties/Government and applied THEIR agenda. Any dissent was met with one or other of the following ‘shut up’ words:
Racist,
Sexist,
Homophobe,
islamaphobe,
Xenophobe and latterly,
Transphobe.
The vast majority of people in the UK would have outvoted the imps; therefore, that what you wrote is not true.
You still lined up and gave up your guns. Eat your cake now.
Did you read what I said? Did you comprehend it? Do you really think that if we all carried guns it would be different? The same is happening in the US and Canada, both of which have plenty of gun owners, so when are you going to start manning the barricades?
L-Is there anything about this situation, which in the U.K. (or elsewhere), that would violate Sharia Law ?
Now you know what being infiltrated, being conquered and/or surrendering, without even a fight, means.
Nuts.
“In 2018, a transgender inmate was found to have sexually assaulted women in a female prison.”
So she’s a lesbian, you know how those dykes can be.
