Transgender Attacks Girl in Bathroom

Commentary by Susan Brinkmann, OCDS

LGBT activists claim there has never been a case of a transgendered person attacking anyone in a bathroom but that’s exactly what happened to a 10 year-old Wyoming girl whose attacker was convicted of sexual abuse of a minor last week.

The Casper Star Tribune is reporting on the trial of Miguel Martinez, a man who identifies as a woman and refers to himself as “Michelle”, who sexually assaulted a young girl in the bathroom of a private residence in March of this year.

The child told police that Martinez, who is a friend of the family, invited her into the bathroom where he proceeded to touch her inappropriately and perform a sex act upon her. Nurses at the Wyoming Medical Center confirmed that the girl had been sexually assaulted.

The Billings-Gazette reports that Martinez, who pleaded not guilty to the charges, was drunk on the night of the assault and had a blood alcohol level nearly three times the legal limit to drive.

During last week’s trial, jurors were shown a video of the child describing the assault to a forensic interviewer for the Children’s Advocacy Project where she told the interviewer that Martinez should go to jail.

Martinez was ultimately found guilty of first- and second-degree sexual abuse of a minor, which could result in a 70-year prison term.

This incident flies in the face of the most commonly used argument in favor of allowing people to use the restrooms that correspond to their gender identity – that there’s never been a case of a transgendered person attacking anyone in a restroom.

For example, in this diatribe by Noah Michelson and appearing on the Huffington Post, we’re told that no “sane, rational, decent human being” thinks transgenders attack people in restrooms. “ . . . Not only has there never been a reported case of a transgender person attacking anyone in a restroom, the very idea that someone would go through all of the emotionally and often physically exhausting steps to identify as transgender just so they could gain access to a restroom to carry out their nefarious plans is just plain bonkers.”

What Michelson fails to address are the many men who aren’t going through “all of the emotionally and often physically exhausting steps to identify as transgender” but are simply using these new bathroom laws to waltz into women’s fitting rooms and restrooms to photograph them – or worse - while they are in various states of undress.

This article, appearing in the Daily Signal earlier this year, documents just those incidents that involved Target stores – which is plenty enough to cause alarm in any sane rational decent human being.
