Wrongfully Convicted Transgender Woman Needs Help · 6:53am Nov 25th, 2016
I live in the State of Arizona so I know firsthand how messed up things are here. I could go on all day about our corrupt state politicians, our crappy Right To Work status, our failing education system, and other details which make us one of the most backwards states in this country.
But right now I want to focus on a story of a transgender woman who has been wrongfully convicted for a crime she never committed and has faced psychological as well as physical torture from people in the law system who refuse to believe she is innocent.
She has been continually forced to undergo tests to prove she is not a paedophile, locked up in various facilities, and treated like an animal for years. While incarcerated she was sexually abused by fellow inmates because they refused to put her in a woman's facility and locked her up with other male inmates.
This is a violation of human rights on so many levels.
Please take the time to read her story and spread the word about it if you can.
You can read more about her story here: https://www.reddit.com/r/lgbt/comments/5ej8qf/wrongfully_convicted_transgender_woman_being/
I also found this entry from another member of the transgender community confirming the story: http://www.aarkthedragon.com/2016_09_01_archive.html?m=1
Help to spread the word on your blogs, social media, YouTube, and other places on the internet so she can receive the justice she deserves.
I don't believe being Transgender is good in anyway. But, what she has suffered from, I believe, is so much worse.
But I know when biased people come into play like that, they always have to pay. We all have to pay for our sins, no matter how fast we run... And when they pay for it, they will wish they wouldn't have done what they did.
4316562 Yeah, it is something that I wanted to help get the word out about because I thought her story was really sad. She definitely needs all the support she can get. I hope she can raise all of the money she needs to get an attorney and get herself out of this messed up situation.
4316669 It's an incredibly sad situation and I truly hope that she can get all of the help she deserves after being treated the was she has for so many years.
What the WHAT!?
Those people in the law are complete idiots. I don't think they are not humans anymore.
4316679 As do I mate. Most of all though, I pray she comes to the Father.
4316693 It's a very tragic situation. I genuinely hope that she will get all of the help that she needs to get out of this horrible mess.
4316694 There seems to be a lot of hate involved in this. These people probably already have made up the mind that she is a criminal based on their own emotions/ biases against transgender people. The whole thing makes me sick. I hope that everyone involved with this will be given a worse punishment than they tried to shove on her for literally no reason at all.
4316722 I will be keeping her in my prayers. I hope that she will get all of the help she needs to get out of this horrible situation.
