Transgender woman to be executed for rape and murder asks for mercy, citing mental illness

If you spend any time on trans Twitter you’ll learn that violence against transgender people is out of control. What they don’t mention is how often this violence is committed by another trans person.

We don’t know if that’s the case here, but a trans woman is pleading for mercy as she’s to be executed for rape and murder.

Raping a woman is a “male” crime? Huh. We suppose if men can get pregnant, women can rape other women.

The Associated Press reports:

The first openly transgender woman set to be executed in the U.S. is asking Missouri’s governor for mercy, citing mental health issues.

Lawyers for Amber McLaughlin, now 49, on Monday asked Republican Gov. Mike Parson to spare her.

McLaughlin was convicted of killing 45-year-old Beverly Guenther on Nov. 20, 2003. Guenther was raped and stabbed to death in St. Louis County.

There is no known case of an openly transgender inmate being executed in the U.S. before, according to the anti-execution Death Penalty Information Center.

“It’s wrong when anyone’s executed regardless, but I hope that this is a first that doesn’t occur,” federal public defender Larry Komp said. “Amber has shown great courage in embracing who she is as a transgender woman in spite of the potential for people reacting with hate, so I admire her display of courage.”

“I hope that this is a first that doesn’t occur,” said the public defender, saying McLaughlin “has shown great courage in embracing who she is.”

The Biden administration has plenty of proud firsts, like the first black, lesbian press secretary. Firsts are to be celebrated. It’s about time a transgender woman was executed.

Was McLaughlin being held in a male or female correctional facility?

Missouri has only executed one woman before, state Corrections Department spokeswoman Karen Pojmann said in an email.

McLaughlin’s lawyers said she previously was rooming with another transgender woman but now is living in isolation leading up to her scheduled execution date.

So McLaughlin will be the second woman executed by the state of Missouri … so it’s not a first in that case.

That could get you suspended on Twitter 1.0.
