California Judge Orders 'She/Her' Pronouns for Tremaine Carroll, Accused of Rapes at Women's Prison Under Transgender Act
Dec 24, 2024, 04:10 AM
A California judge has ruled that Tremaine Carroll, a 52-year-old male inmate accused of raping multiple female inmates at the Central California Women’s Facility in Chowchilla, must be referred to as 'she/her' during his trial. This ruling comes after Carroll, who was transferred to the women's prison under California's Transgender Respect, Agency and Dignity Act, allegedly impregnated one cellmate and raped two others. The law allows inmates to be housed according to their gender identity without requiring psychological evaluations or hormone therapy. The decision to use female pronouns for Carroll during the trial has raised concerns about the impact on the prosecution's case, as California law defines rape as a crime committed by a man.
