Justice Department Sues Utah After Transgender Inmate ‘Removed Her Own Testicles’

[Sugar Cookie]

The Justice Department filed a lawsuit Tuesday against the state of Utah and its prison system after a transgender inmate “removed her own testicles” in response to “unnecessarily delayed” treatment for her gender dysphoria.

The lawsuit alleges that the incarcerated transgender woman – unnamed in the complaint – was discriminated against by the Utah Department of Corrections following “multiple requests to UDOC staff for treatment for gender dysphoria, including multiple requests for hormone therapy” upon entering the state prison system in 2021.

The inmate was diagnosed with gender dysphoria in June 2022, nine months after she first requested hormone therapy, and the hormones were not provided to her until January 2023, according to the complaint.

“In May 2023, Complainant performed dangerous self-surgery and removed her own testicles, resulting in hospitalization and additional surgery,” the lawsuit states.

In addition to seeking medical treatment, the inmate had sought and was denied “reasonable modifications” to prison policies aimed at helping her gender dysphoria symptoms, including the ability to buy “ female clothing and personal items.”

She had also requested that the prison – also unnamed in the suit –modify its “pat search policies” and “individually assess her housing requests.”

“UDOC denied virtually all of Complainant’s [Americans with Disabilities Act] requests,” according to the DOJ.

The Justice Department said in a statement that the lawsuit is “part of its broader efforts to combat discrimination against individuals with gender dysphoria.”

The lawsuit is demanding that Utah and its Department of Corrections and Department of Health and Human Services adopt policies that provide equal opportunities for incarcerated individuals with gender dysphoria; train prison staff on dealing with inmates with gender dysphoria; provide nondiscriminatory health care services to the complainant; and award compensatory damages to the inmate that removed her testicles.

So I guess rewarding stupid or bad behavior is going to become the norm in this country.

Whoever this individual committed a crime against should be able to sue him for damages/emotional distresss.

And whether this criminal has a dick or not he is and will forever be a man.

It's sounding like he won't be rewarded as the U.S. doesn't appear to be suing 'on behalf' of the 'victim'.

Pretty stupid enough to attempt a DIY transition. If DIY becomes the trend, then maybe they should rethink whether this is a mental health issue. (Let's stop kidding ourselves... A mental evaluation is part of the decision to 'go ahead' with the surgery in a hospital)

That is balls to the wall totally nuts!

My understanding is that he/she entered the prison system and then decided he/she wanted the gender treatments. Did they commit a crime just to go to prison hoping the state would foot the bill?
