Protesters gathered at New Jersey’s capitol Friday to demand biologically male prisoners’ removal from the Garden State’s only all-female prison, the New York Post reported.
The #GetMenOut event in Trenton featured activists reading letters from female inmates at Edna Mahan Correctional Facility. In their letters, the female inmates detail their fears of violent altercations with fellow inmates who are biologically male.
Speakers at the Justice Speaks: Free Speech for Women event included activists Brittany Ortiz, Jennifer Thomas, and others. They advocated for the dignity of women incarcerated in sex-segregated prisons.
Ten inmates in EMCF are biological men, the Post reported. One such inmate, who now goes by the name Michelle Hel-Loki Angelina, once bragged about drinking a woman’s blood in a letter viewable in an archived copy of a 2002 article from the New York Daily News, as Outkick reported.
That inmate, housed with women at EMCF, was born male, and was previously named Perry Cerf. He is reportedly serving a 50-year sentence for the rape and murder of a female prostitute.
“Yeah, I killed her. I punched and kicked her to death, crushing her skull in the process. One of the kicks landed in such a way that it broke her neck and all of a sudden her head was on backward … Since I have a most unusual taste for blood, I drank and licked and lapped up my fill,” Cerf wrote to the NYDN.
One letter read Friday in Trenton was written by 51-year-old Dawn Jackson. In it, she described her fears about being imprisoned with men who identify as women. Jackson, who has described being repeatedly raped as a child, is in prison for stabbing her adoptive stepfather after “years of sexual abuse.”
Kim Kardashian’s “The Justice Project” featured Jackson’s story last year.
“Being subjected to live amongst (trans women) who remain equipped with their manhood is extremely overwhelming and difficult for me … Am I living amongst rapists? (Trans women) do not belong in closed/confined prison settings meant to house women/females born feminine.”
Minor is serving a 30-year sentence for first-degree manslaughter. While attempting to rob his former foster parents, he stabbed his 69-year-old former foster father to death.
After Minor was transferred out to a men’s prison, he reportedly attempted to remove his testicles with a razor. Minor identifies as a woman.
