A judge in Indiana has ruled that a prisoner convicted of murdering his 11-month-old stepdaughter back in 2001 must be granted transgender surgery.
The case was originally filed by the American Civil Liberties Union, which argued that the rights of transgender inmate, Jonathan C. Richardson, also known as Autumn Cordellionè, were being violated by an Indiana law prohibiting the Department of Corrections from using taxpayer dollars to fund sex reassignment surgeries for inmates.
"Accordingly, at this point gender-affirming surgery is necessary so that her physical identity can be aligned with her gender identity and so her gender dysphoria can be ameliorated," the lawsuit states.
"She believes that the only remedy for her persistent gender dysphoria, and the serious harm it causes her, is to receive gender-affirming surgery, specifically an orchiectomy and vaginoplasty," it said.
Judge Richard Young, who was appointed to the court by Bill Clinton back in 1998, agreed with this assessment.
"Specifically, Ms. Cordellioné has shown that her gender dysphoria is a serious medical need, and that, despite other treatments Defendant has provided her to treat her gender dysphoria, she requires gender-affirming surgery to prevent a risk of serious bodily and psychological harm," he wrote in his ruling.
As a result, the Department of Corrections must now take "all reasonable actions" to grant the murderer his desired sex change.
Posting on the X platform, Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita confirmed he would be appealing the decision and pointed out that taxpayers would rather not fund such an indulgent request.

P
I bet some of his fellow inmates would do it for free
But not anesthesia.
This is what a collapsed failed nation looks like.
Not only given the right, but that the slaves (that would be you and me and any other productive citizen) must be forced to pay for it whether we like it or not. Freedom according to leftists...
This is insanity. No surgery will fix that.
If the death penalty had been carried out this would be moot.
We are in the Weimar Republic phase of our political evolution.
“This is what a collapsed failed nation looks like.”
Absolutely right.
I hope the day comes when judges like this can’t walk down the street without being sneered at.
This is what "criminal justice" in a collapsed failed nation looks like
Someone's having a HUGE laugh at our expense.
how many people were denied life saving surgeries during the covid plandemic because they refused covid vaccines? yet a sick pervert who also murdered his niece gets to be mutilated for free?
And they wouldn’t hesitate.
The perpetrator doesn’t deserve anesthesia at all.
This is truly bizarro world.
Or given the finger and cursed out for that matter.
I have cosmetic dysphoria- I demand surgery to look like Bradd Pitt!!
(Of course, in my case it would only be minor outpatient... but I digress)
