The number of trans people in Scottish prisons varies between 10 and 30. The latest stats from Q2 2022 suggest 15 but it changes daily. It could be a lot more.

- "7092 people identified themselves as men"
- "280 people identified themselves as women"

1/ 🧵

- "Tran’s men comprised 0.05%"
- "Trans women comprised 0.15%"
- "Non-binary and gender-fluid comprised together 0.04%"

The language is very revealing.

"People who identify as men or women" v "Trans women" - how very peculiar.

Plus they can't spell trans men correctly.

2/

Woke AND illiterate!

Strangely, they refuse to use the term "lesbian" and use gay women instead. Is that normal?

When they describe the "men's estate" I assume they mean biological?

According to the Scottish Prison Service, there is no such thing as men and women. Their definition is “people who identify as men” or “people who identify as women”

Would you have every confidence in them doing a risk assessment on anyone?

When the Scottish Prison Service do their "thorough risk assessment" on male trans people to decide if they should be housed in the female estate, they DO NOT take into consideration any of the following:

1/ 🧵

- Male genitalia
- Previous sex crimes
- Registered sex offender
- Convicted pedophile
- Criminal Justice Onset Gender Dysphoria (suddenly identify as a woman when arrested to engender a more positive experience)
- History of domestic violence
- Any hormones, surgery

2/

or therapy
- History of violence

In other words, he could have beaten, raped and sexually assaulted women and children to death but that does not automatically exclude them for consideration for placement in the female estate.

What's even more alarming is that their 2014

Scottish Prison Service Risk Assessment Panel (scenario):

- This one is a rapist and says he's a woman. Shall we let him in the female prison? Yes
- This one is a child molester and says he's a woman. Shall we let him in the female prison? Yes
- This one is such

1/ 🧵

a dangerous murderer we cannot possibly let him out of prison even though he's finished his sentence and he says he's a woman. Shall we let him in the female prison? Yes
- This one has threatened to punch women in the throat in other prisons and he says he's a woman. Shall

2/

we let him in the female prison? Yes

Let's chat about the type of men who are in women's prisons in Scotland, shall we? Let's call it Dregs Story Hour!

Take Sophie Eastwood. He has already finished a life sentence in prison for murder but the Scottish Prison Service won't release him cos he's too dangerous.

1/ 🧵

Way back in 2018, Sophie formed a relationship with another male trans murderer in the women's wing of Greenock prison which involved "so much public intimacy" that the prisoners and guards were disgusted, complained and they were then split up.

Time to put him into

2/

the male prison? Nooooooo!

Sophie was then sent to the women's wing of Polmont prison where he stalked, harassed, intimidated, threatened, terrified and flashed his genitals at female inmates and prison officers regularly.

Sophie then insisted he identified as a baby

The Scottish Prison Service and the Scottish government are operating illegally.

The UN Standard Minimum for the Treatment of Prisoners (Mandela Rules) state

“Men and women shall be detained in separate institutions; in an institution which receives both men

1/ 🧵

and women, the whole of the premises allocated to women shall be entirely separate”.

The Mandela rules do not make mention of trans people.

The UN Rules for the Treatment of Women Prisoners and Non-custodial Measures for Women Offenders (the Bangkok Rules)

2/

equally do not make specific mention of trans people.

Is it fair or cruel and unusual punishment to put these type of women locked up with violent men who are rapists and sex offenders
- 30% female prisoners have a history of sexual abuse
