Trans: Get Out Of Jail Free Card
Infuriating doesn’t even begin to describe it:
The Iowa Attorney General’s Office is no longer seeking the commitment of a former Midwest Christian Services student convicted of myriad sex crimes because the individual now identifies as a woman.
Court records show the state dismissed the application on Jan. 9. Attorney general spokesman Lynn Hicks wouldn’t comment on the reason for the dismissal other than to say “an offender’s hormone levels are an important part of substantiating an offender’s likelihood of recidivism.”
In November, the Storm Lake Times reported that Joseph Matthew Smith, a 23-year-old convicted of molesting a fellow MCS student in 2014, was “undergoing medical treatment that is needed prior to (Smith) potentially undergoing gender reassignment surgery.”
The shows Smith was convicted of second-degree sexual abuse against a female victim in 2012 and lascivious acts with a child against a male victim in 2014. The registry does not give the victim’s ages; they are listed as children under the age of 13.
Becoming trans erases a multitude of crimes, it appears. Back to the Des Moines Register:
A preliminary report prepared by the state’s expert, Dr. Jeffrey Davis, says Smith molested as many as 15 victims, ranging from ages 1 to 13, before being sentenced to prison in December 2015.
The report found the likelihood of re-offending within five years of release exceeded 20% because victims were of both genders, and because Smith was under age 25 and never had a long-term relationship.
“Mr. Smith has not had an intimate relationship,” the report says. “His sexual encounters appear to have primarily involved molestation, including his own molestation by multiple perpetrators, or his victimization of others.”
The report says Smith was molested repeatedly as a child in Louisiana, starting at age 7.
The report recommended Smith be confined at the Cherokee Civil Commitment Unit for Sex Offenders (CCUSO) in Cherokee for an indefinite period. But it was premised upon Smith having the sex drive of a man.
Read it all. This guy was going to go to prison for what he was convicted of doing — molesting two kids — but now that he’s a she, it’s all good.
When will the backlash begin? When will this culture return to sanity on these matters? Because both are overdue.
UPDATE: In other insane trans news out of Iowa today:
Warren says that she will have a "young trans person" interview her future Secretary of Education and only hire this future secretary if the young trans person approves.

UPDATE.2: Wow, a reader points out that a male-to-female trans person with a huge YouTube following is denouncing this thing in Iowa. I watched enough of the clip to hear a call to the LGBT community to speak out against it. “This cannot be a thing that happens,” says Blaire White. Good!
