#Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW)

He named himself LotusFlower? And he was gifted not just a bra but a fancy one? When many actual women in jail don’t get enough menstrual care products which are a necessity?

A source within Washington’s only women’s prison has come forward to allege that the state’s only women’s prison “gifted” a Victoria’s Secret bra to a trans-identified male inmate following his taxpayer funded breast augmentation surgery.

In June of 2022, it was learned that transgender inmate Nonnie Marcella Lotusflower, born Nathan Goninan, was provided “gender affirming” breast implants by the state of Washington while serving a 10-year sentence for the brutal murder of a teen girl. 

A whistleblower at the institution employed at the Washington Correctional Center for Women (WCCW) spoke to National Review and revealed Lotusflower had successfully undergone breast augmentation surgery while incarcerated. 

The officer stated that three members from the prison’s specialty emergency response team had taken Lotusflower to Spokane, Washington for an appointment prior to the surgery, and then to Gig Harbor to undergo the procedure. 

“One of the members told me they drove hours for a ten-minute appointment. Then they had to take him again for his surgery and he recovered at Airway Heights Correction Center,” the whistleblower explained to National Review. Despite having the ‘top’ surgery, the anonymous officer did confirm Lotusflower is fully intact.

But one source working within the institution has now come forward to allege that the breast implant surgery was not all that was given to Lotusflower at the taxpayer’s expense. 

“I can confirm Nonnie got [a] Victoria’s Secret bra,” the source said. “It happened after [he] got the top surgery.”

The source explained that Victoria’s Secret is not an approved vendor from which inmates can typically order garments, but that Lotusflower “got [the bra] as a present from the facility after going 6 hours back and forth twice to Spokane for the surgery.”

Despite the existence of the bra having been physically confirmed with an inmate working in WCCW’s property room as well as with another anonymous source at the Department of Corrections, the bra is not listed on Lotusflower’s personal property matrix. The source told Reduxx that it was “kept pretty quiet” due to the fact that Victoria’s Secret bras are not technically allowed in the facility.

“No one can bring in one of these bras, and they aren’t allowed to order them,” the source explained. “The women only have a very limited number of options from the approved vendors. No push-up, no padding, no wire. It’s very strict.”

He continued that some of the female inmates are aware of the existence of Lotusflower’s bra, and expressed frustration with what they perceive to be the preferential treatment of the trans-identified male inmates.

“The women are upset when they hear this, they can barely get anything. But the men can get all sorts of options for state-issued property clothing, plus gifts like highly desired Victoria’s Secret items, and get priority for advanced medical care. The men are treated far better than the women,” the source stated.

Reduxx reached out to the Washington Department of Corrections which confirmed that Victoria’s Secret bras were not allowed to be ordered into the facility, but did not address the allegation that Lotusflower was gifted the bra directly by the prison. 

Lotusflower is currently serving a 10-year sentence for the brutal murder of 17-year-old Jessica Franklin.

The violent criminal targeted Franklin just hours after being released from prison in 2007, strangling her to death. Her body was found beneath an underpass in Bellingham, Washington, and a forensic examination revealed signs she had been sexually assaulted. Lotusflower was convicted on second-degree manslaughter charges.

In 2009, while serving his sentence for Franklin’s death, Lotusflower was charged with attempting to break out of prison with another inmate. 

While it is unclear when Lotusflower was transferred to a women’s prison, in 2017 he launched a lawsuit against the Washington State Department of Corrections citing discrimination on the basis of his ‘gender identity,’ and demanding access to ‘gender affirming’ surgeries. The ACLU entered the complaint in support of Lotusflower in 2018.

Lotusflower was previously listed on “Caged Ladies,” a dating website for female inmates. 

Washington’s prison gender self-identification policies have been under fire since 2021 when a whistleblower came forward to reveal that 150 male inmates were being assessed for transfer to the female estate. 

Since then, a number of violent male offenders have already been moved. Among them, notorious serial killer Donna Perry, who was convicted of murdering 3 women in a 4-month timeframe in 1990, but claims to have murdered many more.

Other male transfers include Brett David Sonia, who was convicted in 2005 and 2006 on dozens of charges related to the sexual exploitation of a young girl, and Jolene Charisma Starr, born Joel Thomas Nichols, who was convicted of two horrific sex attacks on young girls.

As previously revealed to Reduxx by an internal source at the prison, there are currently almost one dozen male inmates at the women’s facility. Of the 11 names provided for review, 9 were convicted of crimes against women or children.

Bryan Kim, 35, who now goes by 'Amber FayeFox Kim', was caught having intercourse with 25-year-old Sincer-A Marie Nerton at the Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW) on March 14.

Months later, Kim, who identifies as female, has been moved back to the Monroe Correctional Facility for men. 'The reason for Kim's transfer was due to ongoing safety concerns,' a Department of Corrections official told the National Review.

Kim was convicted in 2008 of two counts of aggravated first-degree murder for fatally stabbing his father, Richard Kim, and bludgeoning and strangling his mother, Terri Kim, as reported by the Spokesman-Review

When Lake first got to prison, the DOC used to allow brief hugs, but eventually banned that, too. “They were like, ‘No hugging. No touching.’ I can’t imagine who I would be today if I spent 24 years in prison and never had a hug. I can’t imagine.”

Much of the intimacy in prison goes undetected by prison staff, but there have been 33 so-called “504 infractions” at WCCW since January 2021, around the time Kim arrived. “This is the only one that resulted in a transfer to another facility,” Wright told HuffPost in an email.

Amber Kim was transferred to a men's prison for the grievous infraction of having sex. She is stuck in some fucking hole for the rest of her life and they moved her to a worse one for daring to be intimate with another person.

Eight Prisons Allow New Mothers to Keep Babies

The Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW) an hour from Seattle is one of at least eight prisons in the U.S. that allows a small number of women who are pregnant and give birth while incarcerated to keep their newborns with them for a limited time, reports NPR. Officials say that because women make up the fastest growing segment of the prison population, prison nurseries provide a way for mothers serving time to nurture and maintain a strong bond with their children. There are more than one thousand women incarcerated at WCCW, 300 more than the prison’s capacity. Those considered minimum security risks live in green cottage-like buildings with far less of the concrete and razor wire that surrounds maximum and medium security buildings.

Mothers in the Residential Parenting Program (RPP) have keys to their rooms and travel the hallways carrying infants or pushing them in strollers. They can use a kitchen to prepare food for themselves and their child. Sonya Alley oversees the Residential Parenting Program. She says it gives women a tangible way to turn their lives around. “It gets them out of their addictive past and co-dependency on drugs, or alcohol or relationships,” she says. “It seems oxymoronic but there’s some clarity when forced to do a prison sentence and forced to be a parent. It starts to shift the way the women think about themselves, their environments and wanting the best for themselves and their child.” What support, if any, the women receive outside of prison once they’re released is a big question. Some critics say sentencing alternatives — like home confinement or GPS monitoring, which Washington State does offer, may serve women and children better than prison nurseries.

In his submissions to the court, Patterson shifted his claimed vulnerabilities multiple times, first arguing that had a difficult upbringing due to being of Indigenous heritage, then claiming he identified as a “transgender woman” named “Rachel” and would be at risk in an American prison." There it is, a violent man was reaching for any reason to get some protection in prison and found that claiming to be trans is the current trend

By Shay Woulahan December 18, 2023

A source at the Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW) has confirmed the transfer of a violent male offender to the facility following his conviction for bludgeoning an acquaintance to death. Kevin Patterson, who initially fled to Canada following the murder, attempted to use his transgender identity to avoid extradition to the United States.

Patterson, who often goes by the names Haedyn-Khris Beaumann and Rachel Patterson, was charged in 2014 with murdering Richard Bergesen, 57, with the help of a younger accomplice named Christopher Shade.

At the age of 19, Patterson, who was homeless, met Bergersen through Overlake Christian Church in Redmond. Out of sympathy for his situation, Bergersen offered Patterson a place to stay at his home in Sammamish, Washington. At the time, Patterson already had multiple convictions from offenses he committed as a teen.

“He looked like a very nice kid and Richard took him under his wing to help him… [Richard] was approached by a pastor from his church to help Kevin,” a neighbour would tell law enforcement after the murder.

According to Shade, he and Patterson beat Bergersen to death with a shovel while his hands and legs were bound. The two had reportedly only met the day before they committed the murder together.

The pair stole Bergersen’s money, credit cards and car before fleeing to the Canadian border, which was less than 3 hours away. Bergesen was found dead in his home with multiple skull fractures, and a police search was launched to locate his killers. Both Shade and Patterson were arrested the same day in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada after using Bergersen’s credit cards to go on a shopping spree and host a party at a local hotel.

Both were initially charged with first-degree murder, first-degree robbery and theft of a motor vehicle.

When questioned by police in Canada, Patterson admitted that he did tie up Bergesen and take his wallet but immediately attempted to shift the blame onto Shade, claiming the other had been the mastermind behind the plot.

Detectives on the case revealed in police documents that Patterson had confessed to the murder over the phone to a friend, saying he bashed Bergesen’s head with a shovel after rejecting the 57-year-old’s sexual advances.

Shade was quickly sent back to the United States as he had illegally crossed the border and ultimately pleaded guilty to second degree murder. During the hearings, Shade revealed that he and Patterson had originally planned to drug and rob Bergesen before fleeing to Canada. However, Patterson deviated from the plan at the last moment, taking a shovel from the garage and beating him to death.

But while Shade was being sentenced in the US, Patterson’s extradition case was complicated by the fact that he was a dual-citizen and had been born in Canada.

Patterson quickly began to fight against extradition in court, filing 8 motions in total in which he raised a number of concerns regarding his “safety” in the United States justice system, and fear of being subjected to the death penalty if convicted for first degree murder.

In his submissions to the court, Patterson shifted his claimed vulnerabilities multiple times, first arguing that had a difficult upbringing due to being of Indigenous heritage, then claiming he identified as a “transgender woman” named “Rachel” and would be at risk in an American prison.

“S/he is transgendered. This poses a real risk for her in jail,” Patterson’s counsel wrote in a submission to the court in 2018. “She says she simply doesn’t belong in a men’s remand [center], and increasingly I can see her point.”

Explaining why it took so long for his transgender status to be raised as a concern, his counsel suggested stigma was to blame.

“In short, it would seem that you have not been told the whole story – not through anyone’s oversight but from Ms. Patterson’s genuine fear of reprisal if her transgendered state (and state of mind) should be revealed. I must admit that my initial assumption was that Kevin was heterosexual. I was mildly surprised when he came out and declared himself homosexual.”

Patterson’s appeals were eventually heard before the Supreme Court of Canada but, in 2018, the decision to extradite him to the US was upheld. His counsel then fought for assurance that when extradited, his gender identity would be recognized and he would be given protections as a “transgender woman.” Patterson was finally released into American custody in June of 2020, where he was held at the King County Correctional Facility awaiting trial.

Patterson was convicted of first degree murder in 2022, and quietly transferred to the Washington Corrections Center for Women, where he now reportedly has a projected release date of 2040.

According to a source at the facility, Patterson has been “totally manipulating” other inmates and staff using his transgender status, and has reportedly said he wants to get someone pregnant despite identifying as a homosexual.

“He’s not even attempting to be ‘womanly’ at all,” the source says. “And he’s trying to use the trans issue to get sent back to Canada where he thinks he’d only have to serve half the sentence.”

Like other trans-identified male inmates, Patterson has made a profile on a website called “Caged Ladies,” which is intended to serve as a dating platform for incarcerated women.

In his profile, Patterson calls himself “Haedyn Beaumann” and describes himself as a “transgender individual” who is “non-binary” and “pansexual.” This is despite him previously identifying as a gay transgender woman while fighting extradition.

Patterson is just the latest known male to be housed at WCCW, which has seen a wave of transgender inmates be transferred in since 2021. Of the male offenders known to be at the facility, approximately 80% are serving sentences for violent crimes committed against women or children.

Earlier this year, Reduxx revealed that a violent male pedophile had been moved to the prison after beginning to identify as transgender. Jolene Charisma Starr, born Joel Thomas Nichols, was convicted in 1995 of two horrific attacks on young girls.

In July of this year, another male pedophile who was convicted of sexually abusing a 9 year old girl was also moved to WCCW. This is despite his history of violence against cellmates whilst being housed in a male prison.

According to an Incident Report obtained by Reduxx, the inmate, Christopher Scott Williams, was charged in 2012 after brutally attacking a man named Christopher Barrett while serving a sentence for failing to register as a child sex offender.

“I think it’s important to note that [men] like Khael who transfer straight from county have not been through a men’s facility … so they have done no treatment and have had little mental health care,” the source, who wishes to remain anonymous, explained.” So violent men are being sent to women’s prisons without any treatment to make them safer for the women imprisoned with him.

An unstable male pedophile convicted of attempting to kidnap a child is now being housed in a Washington women’s prison, according to a source within the institution. 

Khael Aguilar-McNamee, 25, was sentenced on January 23 to 20 months in prison for second-degree kidnapping and third-degree assault related to a 2021 incident in Vancouver, Washington. Aguilar-McNamee had aggressively attempted to kidnap a 5-year-old boy in broad daylight at a local park while the child was playing.

The young boy’s mother, who is deaf, tried to protect her son and intervene in the kidnapping but was unsuccessful. He continued to chase her and her son even after she managed to grab him away. According to an affidavit, Aguilar-McNamee admitted to trying to punch the woman in the face for taking her son back. Police were called by a female bystander who was the only one who attempted to intervene.

When police arrived, they questioned Aguilar-McNamee on his motivations, including asking him if he was sexually attracted to children, to which the predator replied: “Yes.”

Aguilar-Mcnamee’s conviction was handed down December of 2022 after almost one year of court disruptions and attempts to clear Aguilar-Mcnamee as competent to stand trial. 

At his very first court hearing, which had been set to take place the day after the incident, Aguilar-McNamee was unable to attend, with a deputy from Clark County Jail sharing that he had become unruly and uncooperative.

The deputy stated Aguilar-McNamee had been “throwing things, including fluids, at a window and refused to get dressed.” Then 24 years old, standing at 5’4” and 245 pounds, Aguilar-McNamee proved difficult to work with from the start of his detention. The hearing he refused to attend was postponed to the following day, and when he did appear in court for the first time it was briefly via Zoom video chat. The jail deputy told the court that the defendant wasn’t clothed and was throwing food at deputies.

Aguilar-McNamee was scheduled for a competency hearing in October and November of 2021. But it wasn’t until months later, in February 2022, that he was finally seen for his competency review. 

He did not appear in court again until late March, and was ultimately deemed competent to stand trial. In April 2022, Aguilar-McNamee entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity, and two more competency hearings would take place before McNamee was once again found capable of standing trial and he was convicted in December.

It was not until the end of January of 2023 that his sentence was handed down by the court.

Disturbingly, Aguilar-McNamee appears to have been sent to serve his 20-month sentence in a women’s prison.

A source at the Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW) has informed Reduxx that Aguilar-McNamee was transferred into the institution directly from his trial holding at the Clark County Jail, and expressed concern for the safety of the female inmates Aguilar-McNamee is now being housed with.

“I think it’s important to note that [men] like Khael who transfer straight from county have not been through a men’s facility … so they have done no treatment and have had little mental health care,” the source, who wishes to remain anonymous, explained. 

“They are basically coming in [to a woman’s facility] without anyone having addressed their deviancy issues or violence towards women which are often the issues surrounding their conviction.” 

Aguilar-McNamee’s history of claiming a transgender status is very sporadic and unclear. The news coverage of the 2021 attempted kidnapping uniformly refers to him as a male using he/him pronouns. Court documents similarly identified him as male. However, the source at WCCW stated Aguilar-McNamee sometimes uses the name “Thalia,” leading Reduxx to learn about a 2014 case at the Cowlitz District Court where Aguilar-Mcnamee appears to have been tried under the name Thalia Alaxandra.

The court has two records for the same case, one with first name “Thalia Alaxandra – Old Name,” and an updated version of the same case number with, “Khael Alaxandarares – New Name.” 

The Washington Department of Corrections (WADOC) currently has Aguilar-McNamee recorded under his birth name, and confirmed his detention at the women’s prison. The media contact at the WADOC provided Reduxx with the most recent file photo of Aguilar-McNamee, one showing the inmate with a full beard and short hair. 

The WADOC did not provide Reduxx an answer as to why Aguilar-McNamee had been assigned to the female prison.

Aguilar-McNamee is just the latest male to be housed at the Washington Corrections Center for Women. A source with close contact within the facility has turned over the names of at least eight male inmates who were housed or transferred to the prison. Among them are men with extensive histories of sexual or physical violence towards women.

In December of 2022, Reduxx revealed that a rapist had been quietly transferred to WCCW. Brett David Sonia, who also goes by the name Brooke Lyn Sonia, was convicted in 2005 and 2006 on dozens of charges related to the sexual exploitation of a young girl. 

The source advised Reduxx that Sonia had reportedly been boasting to female inmates that he identified as a “man,” and frequently changed his gender identity.

Another male inmate at WCCW is serial killer Donna Perry, who murdered at least three women within a four-month timeframe in 1990. Despite only being convicted on three bodies, Perry once claimed to a cellmate that he had killed nine women total, and had targeted them specifically because he was jealous of their reproductive capabilities.

Two different states with two different violent men claiming to be trans to play the system

ByAnna Slatz. July 26, 2023

Reduxx has learned that a male inmate currently serving his sentence at the Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW) was transferred despite being convicted of a brutal assault on a fellow inmate while in a men’s prison. Christopher Scott Williams, 33, was first arrested after sexually abusing a 9-year-old girl.

Williams, who has not changed his legal name or sex, was reportedly transferred into WCCW around the same time the facility saw a wave of transgender males being moved into the female estate in 2021. In May of that year, a whistleblower at the institution revealed that there were approximately 150 males waiting for transfer to WCCW.

A sadistic man who beat two of his own infant children to death is now reportedly awaiting breast implants while at a women’s prison in California. Jessica Marie Hann, born Jason Michael Hann, began identifying as a woman in 2019.

Hann was first arrested after the remains of his 10-week-old daughter, Montana, were discovered stuffed in a tupperware container in Arkansas. The little girl’s body was found in an advanced state of decomposition and had been abandoned onboard an RV trailer once owned by Hann after the vehicle had been repossessed and sent to auction. The buyer of the RV discovered the body in February of 2002, and called police.

Montana’s corpse had been in the plastic tub for approximately one year before she was found, and it was later determined that the baby had died of a fractured skull.

Because Hann’s name had once been registered to the trailer, police were quickly able to connect him to the corpse. A multi-state manhunt was launched, and Hann was found living at a motel in Maine with his then-partner, Krissy Werntz. Hann and Werntz were arrested in April of that same year.

Hann was transfered to the same prison his ex wife was serving her sentence. She was so afraid she was transferred to another prison

Actual women in prison have trouble accessing adequate menstrual products and this prison wastes time getting a man with a history of violence against women breast implants?

A trans-identified male inmate with a history of violence against women has been given ‘gender affirming’ breast implants while imprisoned in a women’s prison in Washington.

Nonnie Lotusflower, born Nathan Goninan, is currently serving a 10-year sentence for the brutal murder of 17-year-old Jessica Franklin.

Goninan murdered Franklin by strangulation just hours after being released from prison in 2007. Her body was found beneath an underpass in Bellingham, Washington, and a forensic examination revealed signs she had been sexually assaulted. Goninan was convicted on second-degree manslaughter charges.

In 2009, while serving his sentence for Franklin’s death, Goninan was charged with attempting to break out of prison with another inmate. 

While it is unclear when Goninan was transferred to a women’s prison, in 2017 he launched a lawsuit against the Washington State Department of Corrections citing discrimination on the basis of his ‘gender identity,’ and demanding access to ‘gender affirming’ surgeries. The ACLU entered the complaint in support of Goninan in 2018.

On June 20, a whistleblower employed at the Washington Correctional Center for Women (WCCW) spoke toNational Review and revealed Goninan had successfully undergone breast augmentation surgery while incarcerated. The correctional officer, who was not named due to concerns over professional repercussions, noted that Goninan had recently been escorted on a medical leave from the prison to get breast implants.

The officer stated that three members from the prison’s specialty emergency response team took Goninan to Spokane, Washington for an appointment prior to the surgery, and then to Gig Harbor to undergo the procedure.

“One of the members told me they drove hours for a ten-minute appointment. Then they had to take him again for his surgery and he recovered at Airway Heights Correction Center,” the whistleblower explained to National Review. Despite having the ‘top’ surgery, the anonymous officer did confirm Goninan is fully intact, and is regularly noted as engaging sexually with female inmates. 

Goninan currently has a profile listed on Caged Ladies — a dating and pen pal website for female inmates. His profile photo shows he has extensive facial tattooing and describes himself as a “tattoo artist.”

WCCW has had multiple disturbing male transfers either presently incarcerated at the institution or recently released. 

Currently housed at the institution is serial killer Donna Perry, born Douglas Robert Perry, who murdered three prostituted women in a four-month timeframe in 1990.

Yolanda Sapp, 26, Nicki Lowe, 34, and Kathleen Brisbois, 38, were all murdered with a gun and their naked bodies were found disposed near the Spokane River.

Perry initially avoided suspicion following the heinous murders, and fled to Thailand in 2000 to undergo gender reassignment surgeries, after which he successfully concealed his identity for years. It wasn’t until a 2012 DNA test following a conviction for illegal firearms possession that Perry was forensically connected to all three women’s murders.

During the trial proceedings, prosecutors contended that Perry had only undergone his gender changes to avoid suspicion for the murders and shirk justice. This was in part fueled by the fact Perry referred to his “male” and “female” identities in separate contexts, accusing his “male” side of having committed the crimes while his “female” identity was innocent of them.

While Perry was only convicted of the three murders, he claims to have killed nine prostituted women total. In 1998, during a prison stint for an unrelated charge, Perry allegedly told a fellow inmate that he wanted to kill prostitutes “because [he] couldn’t breed and the women had the ability to have children [but] they were wasting it being “pond scum.”

In December 2021, a female ex-inmate at the WCCW anonymously came forward and reported that the institution had been experiencing a wave of sexual assaults on vulnerable female inmates by trans-identified males who received transfers to the facility after identifying as female.

One such assault was committed by Princess Zoe Andromeda Love, a biological male with a criminal history that included the rape of a 12-year-old girl. 

Love reportedly sexually assaulted a developmentally disabled female inmate just prior to his release. According to a former correctional officer at WCCW, many of the files associated with the incident were “erased” from the system.

Speaking to National Review in November of 2021, Scott Flemming noted that the relationship between Love and the female inmate had been described by the witnessing officer as one of “predator-victim” rather than “two inmates in love, after having consensual intercourse,” which is how it had initially been written off by the prison.

According to Flemming, the incident report on the interaction between Love and the female inmate had been “erased” from the system when the witnessing officer went to check on it one month after submitting it. Flemming noted that it was likely “part of a coverup” as the Washington Department of Corrections faced a lawsuit barring the release of information on inmate gender identity following the first whistleblower’s initial appearance on the radio program in May of 2021.

On March 31, the Washington state legislature passed a bill which ended public disclosures on currently and formerly incarcerated people’s transgender status, effectively obscuring the current number of trans-identified males housed in the state’s female facilities.

In what is becoming an all-too familiar occurrence, another formerly incarcerated woman reports that multiple male inmates have sexually exploited female residents while incarcerated at the Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW).

Numerous Reports of Sexual Violence by Male Prisoners There are numerous instances of female prisoners indicating that they feel unsafe when males are housed with them:

Women in Canadian prisons have detailed specific instances of disturbing behaviours, including sexual harassment, threats and physical assaults. Incarcerated women in California are suing the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, stating that they are plagued with constant “fear, anxiety, depression, and/or post-traumatic stress disorder” . Women are Human has previously highlighted increasing sexual violence against women by males prisoners. The former WCCW prisoner has corroborated one of these accounts, confirming an allegation by a former correction officer (Scott Fleming) that Princess Zoee Marie Andromeda Love (previously known as Hobby Bingham) sexually abused Heather Trent, who had the “disposition of a child”. Women Punished for Speaking Out As former prisoners in Canada and Scotland have previously noted, women who express concerns about abusive males in women’s prisons are often reprimanded for speaking out or for simply not referring to these males as women, and are typically labeled “transphobic”.

The former WCCW prisoner told National Review of a similar pattern at the women’s prison in Washington. For example, the woman relayed the story of a female prisoner who woke up to a male prisoner called Jazzy (previously known as Jonathan) with an obvious erection “touching her all over”. When the victim complained to prison staff, she was accused of making a false claim and sent to segregation. Manipulating the System

The former WCCW prisoner also supported Scott Fleming’s claim that male prisoners are manipulating the transgender transfer policy so that they can be housed with women. This aligns with concerns raised by female prisoners in Scotland, who expressed skepticism that some male prisoners housed with them actually ‘identified’ as women, and a number did not view the male prisoners as women, especially when they still had male genitalia (these concerns were framed as “prejudiced views towards transgender people” by the Scottish Prison Service staff member, Matthew Maycock, who undertook the study). In fact, one of the women appeared to hesitate in her description of a male prisoner, expressing uncertainty as to whether she was allowed to state – even though her anonymity was being protected in this research study – that he was still a man:

“She’s still a guy. I don’t know if I’m…am I allowed to say all that, right? Still a guy or whatever and I think a lot of the girls has…well, a few of the girls within the hall had been subject to abuse as a child so they still saw this guy figure. “

A number of the Scottish women also spoke of male prisoners who “switched back to their male birth gender after being released”, which further indicated to them that these male prisoners were transferring to women’s prisons simply as a means to escape the male estate. As one woman relayed:

“Yes, because we spoke about that after she got out. So, if she’s gone out and clearly identified as a guy and the chances are if she was to get jail or whatever she’d come in as a guy but want to transition again “
