A judge ruled that a transgender woman could not have indecently exposed her penis in a YMCA female changing room after agreeing with her claim that she's too fat for it to be visible.
Darren Glines, who now goes by Rachel, was found not guilty of three counts of indecent exposure at the facility in Xenia, Ohio.
Judge David McNamee cleared Glines after agreeing that the size of her belly meant it would be impossible for anyone to see her penis.
Glines, 31, has had several complaints made against her dating back to 2021 – with at least three people complaining that they saw a 'naked male in the female locker room.'
One of the complaints stated that there were three juveniles present during the incident, with a woman going to the front desk to report the issue.
But she was reassured by a worker that it was 'actually a woman' and that she 'shouldn't have been disturbed' but the incident.
Judge David McNamee said that there was 'little dispute as to the facts of the case' as Glines was authorized by the Executive Director of the YMC to use the women's locker room.
Jacqueline Brockman said that Glines was allowed to use the facilities at all of the Greater Dayton area YMCA locations.
The case was legally brought against Darren Glines, but she now goes by the first name of Rachel and has not had gender reassignment surgery.

The entire judicial system is a joke.
Up until this year, that was a headline I was sure I’d never see
PLEASE, NO PICTURES!
I’ll take “News headlines you thought you would never see” for 500 Alex
“David McNamee was appointed to the bench of Xenia Municipal Court by Governor Mike DeWine. Judge McNamee assumed office on April 11, 2022. The seat was formerly held by Judge Ron Lewis, who was appointed to the Second District Court of Appeals in December 2021. McNamee must run for election in 2023 in order to complete the unexpired term ending December 31, 2025.”
C’mon, Xenia. Vote this jackass out.
Up until this year that was a headline I never thought I would see...or post!
This has to be a Saturday Night Live skit.
Who can now take the United States seriously?
Just a morbidly obese dude with long hair
Did the judge make this determination after telling the defendant to drop trou in camera or in open court?
The Daily Mail (and everyone else) needs to stop calling men like that guy “she”. It just adds to the problem.
The headline is dishonest. A woman (including a transwoman) has a vagina (not a penis). If that person had a sex change operation and had organs that look like female genitals, then, it might be okay to say that person is a woman. Until that happens, he’s a man.

Yes vote them out! That is partly why I post these! Remember who does this F*** S*** and vote these morons out!
They need to be slapped with a mis-information badge of stupidity for big bucks. That’ll learn ‘em!
“A judge ruled that a transgender woman could not have indecently exposed her penis “
Her penis. A “news” outlet
The judge did the right thing, if in fact the genitals were not visible.

“Judgment notwithstanding the verdict, also called judgment non obstante veredicto, or JNOV, is a type of judgment as a matter of law that is sometimes rendered at the conclusion of a jury trial.”

“judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV)
“A judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV) is a judgment by the trial judge after a jury has issued a verdict, setting aside the jury’s verdict and entering a judgment in favor of the losing party without a new trial. A JNOV is very similar to a directed verdict except for the timing within a trial. A judge will issue a JNOV if he or she determines that no reasonable jury could have reached the jury’s verdict based on the evidence presented at trial, or if the jury incorrectly applied the law in reaching its verdict. A trial judge may grant a JNOV in response to a motion for a judgment notwithstanding the verdict by the losing party, or in some jurisdictions like California, sua sponte. In a civil case, the judge can grant a JNOV in favor of both plaintiffs and defendants. Some jurisdictions require that a party preserve the right to move for a JNOV by moving for a directed verdict earlier in the trial. A motion for a judgment notwithstanding the verdict is often filed together with a motion for a new trial by the losing party in response to the jury’s verdict. A judge’s decision to grant or deny a motion for JNOV is often reviewable on appeal. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure have replaced JNOV with Judgment as a Matter of Law (JMOL).”
