A transgender woman collared among the multitude of rioters during Baltimore's chaotic unrest on Monday is being detained in men's quarters at the city jail, a defense attorney that oversaw the woman’s bail hearing says.
Deairra Venable was forced to go braless when she appeared before a judge on Wednesday on misdemeanor burglary charges, attorney Mirriam Seddiq told the Daily News.
“They took away her bra. You can see she has breasts,” Seddiq said. “She’s a woman.”
A glass panel separated Venable from one of Seddiq’s attorneys on Thursday evening. The two spoke of the other inmates “ogling” at her naked body through a small window after being told to strip for an intake search.
The guards are “taunting” her, too, Venable has claimed. Because of Maryland’s state of emergency, the correctional guards overseeing her time in custody can apparently get away with mistreatment.
“The whole situation is degrading,” one of the firm’s four attorneys, Astrid Munn, told The News.

ReplyDeleteIf IT got a penis, it's still a man. Mia, on the B&B had a complete sex charge. Mia is a woman. Not a pretender. Stop pretending to be a woman if you were born a man. Most Transgender are attention seekers and pretender's.
ReplyDelete1:17, I agree, the amount of lawsuits that come out of all this will bankrupt Baltimore.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet they were lined up to have her/him share a cell.
