Transgender Sex Offenders Placed in Women’s Jails in...

In Scotland, 12 transgender prisoners convicted of violence or sexual crimes have been moved into women’s jails in the past 18 months, according to a new report.
本月新聞，在過去18個月以來，蘇格蘭有12名具有暴力或性侵前科的跨性別移監女子監獄。

One of the prisoners had gender reassignment surgery while the other eleven simply self-identified as female, The Times reported based on figures released under Freedom of Information laws.

其中一人已接受性別重置手術，另外十一人僅自我認同為女性。泰晤士報依據政府公開資訊法報導。

蘇格蘭已經規劃跨性別監獄（專門收容高度威脅其他囚犯的跨女囚)，但因為倉促建成，所以設施並不完善，根據另一則報導，跨性別監獄中的有一名囚犯數度自殘，其他囚犯則抱怨獄中過於無聊，沒有任何有意義的活動。

蘇格蘭獄政機關說他們考慮終止將跨性別移監到女子監獄。
