Transgendered murderer pushes for state-funded sex-change surgery with help from the ACLU

Posted on August 19, 2006

Tip o’ me tam to Sweetness and Light.

You may not be able to see it, but his hair in this picture is longer than shoulder length, and he is wearing lipstick and earrings and seems to be working hard on developing his chest–probably with the help of female hormones.

This Jan. 15, 1993 image shows Robert J. Kosilek in Bristol County Superior Court in New Bedford, Mass., where Kosilek was on trial for the May 1990 murder of his wife. Kosilek, now known as Michelle, hopes a federal court will force the state to fund a sex-change operation for him.
I’ve done some research on this guy; he has a way of turning on the tears. The first dramatic demonstration of this when during his arrest when he cried and admitted murdering his wife. Then he cried crocodile tears in court over someone murdering his wife and it wasn’t him, but the jury didn’t believe him so now he’s in prison for murdering his wife and wants a sex change and is still pouring on the crocodile tears.

From the AP:

Inmates in several other states have sued prison officials for sex-change operations. Like Kosilek, they argued that gender identity disorder is a serious illness that can lead to severe anxiety, depression, suicide attempts and self-castration. They argue that treatment for their condition is a “medical necessity” and denying it would violate the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment…

The “Inmate Sex Change Prevention Act” was introduced after Wisconsin inmate Scott Konitzer filed a lawsuit seeking a sex-change operation. The law took effect in January, but is being challenged by the American Civil Liberties Union and Lambda Legal.
In Colorado, inmate Christopher “Kitty” Grey, who is serving 16 years to life for molesting an 8-year-old girl, is suing the state to provide him with a gender specialist he hopes will determine that he needs a sex-change operation. The state Department of Corrections is already giving Grey female hormones.

“For all intents and purposes, I am a woman in a man’s prison,” Grey told the Denver Post in an interview earlier this year. “That’s like putting a cat in a dog kennel,” Grey said…

I suggest you read the whole thing; but what I find appalling is the crimes these cretins have committed and how much more taxpayer dollars they’re wasting in terms of time and money for rights that they don’t have. THESE PEOPLE COMMITTED DESPICABLE CRIMES and they SHOULD BE GLAD THEY’RE ALIVE, let alone harrassing people with their ridiculous cries of ‘oppression’–when they’re never going to get out, they’re not going to be rehabilitated, and they want to carry on having their deviant parties like Richard Speck did all the way until he died. And he was trying to grow boobs, too. These guys are in prison–it’s not cruel and unusual punishment to let them remain just exactly as God created them–as men–who are in an environment where they’re somebody’s bitch.

That was their choice when they committed their sickening crimes to begin with. Do the crime, do the time. In this case, I think he should have received a quick dose of Capital Punishment so we don’t have to watch the sickening drama play out in the courts on the money I pay in taxes.

The average cost of keeping an inmate is somewhere around $27,000. I think we could use that money elsewhere and do some good with it.

This Florida death row fact sheet says it costs approximately $72.39 per day to incarcerate a Death Row inmate. I think we have a lot of money we could be saving if we just sent them to their punishment and stopped giving them the opportunity to waste time, resources and money in useless appeals.

We should stop ‘forgiving’ murderers, rapists and child molesters and get it done with. And if they’re going to be on death row for committing a crime, they can sit in their man suit and cry like a girl about their sex change operation. Would he be demanding such a thing from the government if he were a regular guy on the outside? This is ridiculous.

The Thirteenth Amendment allows prisoners to be slaves so I can not see how the ACLU can claim they have any rights under the law but to due process and equal protection.
