CHARLESTON, S.C. – A South Carolina inmate serving a life sentence for killing a Charleston woman in 2003 wants the state to help with a sex change.

The Post and Courier of Charleston reported that Edmonds Tennent Brown IV, who know uses the name Katheryn Brown, had asked the corrections department to help her transition from a man to a woman.

The agency has rejected the request from Brown, 44.

Brown pleaded guilty in the strangulation of a 53-year-old teacher Mary Lynn Witherspoon.

State law prohibits the use of state funds for gender changing operations. The department does provide hormonal therapy if the inmate was using the drugs when sent to prison.

Two minutes, a gurney with restraints, a butcher knife, and his victim’s family would probably be delighted to grant his request.

Edmonds Tennent Brown IV's attorney should be given a sex change for taking up this cause. I'm sure he collected fees from the state wasting the time of the court.

By the way, Brown the IV can trace his ancestry for four generations. That's commendable.

Some nut job liberal judge will probably end up granting the perv’s request.

Weel, there’s not much to do in prison and the taxpayers will be on the hook for just about anything!

Elective procedures such as this are the privilege of FREE men and women. Prisoners aren’t free. They are incarcerated for crimes against someone else, they CHOSE to be in prison.

Do your time, pay your penalties, then get a job and pay for your own sex change procedures. Sex change procedures are NOT the problem or responsibility of the tax payer.

There are some incarcerated who shouldn’t even be alive, who shouldn’t be allowed a single next breath, and should be sent strait to the eternal Judge for their rightful sentence whether it be eternal peace or damnation.

But under no circumstance does the tax payer OWE an inmate anything more than food, shelter, clothing, a bed to sleep on, a blanket, and health preserving measures such as for example insulin for diabetics, antibiotics for infections, infected tooth extractions, glasses.. and other medications to maintain health..that sort. Nobody owes anybody a pair of boobs, or an addidicktome.

Sheesh.

An FBI agent once told me that the reason people are in prison are because they are LAZY. they want to take from others rather than do what it takes to better themselves and their families.

He was correct.

His mistake was committing the crime in South Carolina rather than California.

Once out of prison, would Obamacare pay for this sex change?

to help her transition from a man to a woman

Why do they call him a 'her' when he is not a she?

If that was her mug shot while on the hormones before imprisonment, I’d say the hormones weren’t working.

It’s so nice to live in a state where people have more sense than to put up with this kind of nonsense.

Except when it comes to re-electing Lindsay Graham.

Give him a bottle of whiskey for anesthesia, a box cutter for removal, and a blowtorch for cauterization, and let him DIY.
