Just when you think you’ve heard it all…you hear something like this.

A transgender woman accused of being a serial killer is blaming the 1990 murders of three prostitutes in Washington State on her past male persona…Donna Perry, 62, had gender reassignment surgery in Thailand and said when a person transitions from male to female, “there’s a great downturn in violence.”

She also told police that she intentionally had the operation, which she underwent in 2000, “as a permanent way to control violence” purportedly perpetrated when she was her male self, Douglas Perry.

What’s interesting about this is that the case, which went unsolved for 20 years, broke open because Perry was tied via DNA to the killings.  You know, the DNA that does not change regardless of which equipment you remove or attach.  That’s what it comes down to, really.  DNA belonging to one person was found, and that DNA belongs to that person.  It doesn’t matter if that person is running around with Tab A or Slot B, the DNA is them.  Naturally, this doesn’t stop Perry from claiming that his/her other self did it, and now that he’s a she, he/she is just fine to be in society.  Try saying all that five times fast.

The fact that this defense is even being put forth is a testament to how stupid our society is.  The fact that it’s being allowed is a testament to how stupid our judicial system is.  Here’s what the defendant had to say:

“I’m not going to admit I killed anybody, I didn’t. Donna has killed nobody,” she told police. When pressed if “Doug did” the killings, Perry replied, “I don’t know if Doug did or not, it was 20 years ago and I have no idea whether he did or did not,” according to the affidavit.

In 1998, Perry served 18 months in an Oregon prison. The affidavit says that when Washington detectives interviewed a cell mate, she told them that Perry allegedly confessed to killing nine prostitutes “because she couldn’t breed and the women had the ability to have children and they were wasting it being ‘pond scum.'”

Take a very close look at that statement.  “Donna has killed nobody.”  Referring to him/herself in the third person.  Removing themselves from the crime–typical.  Then referring to himself as Doug also in the third person but also claiming that “I have no idea whether he did or did not.”  That’s an evasion, not a denial.  What’s really important is the statement made to the cellmate.  That speaks to a very specific problem with women.

This person deserves to be put to death, not pitied as some champion of the transgender movement.
